• A. $789,790,245,43,9$
• B. $790,789,245,43,9$
• C. $9,43,245,789,790$
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is B $790,789,245,43,9$

Given numbers = $245,789,790,43,9$

We know that
$3$ Digit number $>2$ Digit number $>1$ Digit number

But, for same-digit numbers , we check the leading digit of the number.

So, $245$ is smaller than $789$ and $790$.

But in $789$ and $790$, the leading digit i.e. Hundreds place digit is same.

So, we compare the Tens place digit of numbers using Place Value table.


As $9>8$,

So,


Therefore, the correct decreasing order is :

$790,789,245,43,9$
