Question

Which set of integers is written in ascending order?

• A. $112,-200,315,-48$
• B. $-64,-86,-101,-260$
• C. $-361,-316,-163,-136$
• D. $45,80,-100,-125$

Answer 1

The correct option is C

$-361,-316,-163,-136$

Integer are whole numbers which are in negative direction also. On the right side of zero we have positive integers and on the left side of zero we have negative integers.

Option (A) : $112,-200,315,-48$ , Here $112$ is greater than $-200$ as $112$ lies on the right side of $-200$, Hence this option is Wrong

Option (B) : $-64,-86,-101,-260$, Here$-64$ is greater than $-86$ as $-64$ lies on the right side of $-86$, Hence this option is Wrong

Option (C) : $-361,-316,-163,-136$, Here $-361$ is smaller than $-316$ and which is smaller than $-163$ and $-136$, Hence this option is Correct

Option (D) : $45,80,-100,-125$, Here $80$ is greater than $-100$ as $80$ lies on the right side of $-100$, Hence this option is Wrong.

Hence option (C) is correct.
