Question

Write in ascending order.

$3,-2,-5,0,1,8$

Answer 1

Step 1: Arrange the negative integers in ascending order

Given integers are$3,-2,-5,0,1,8$

the negative integers are$-2,-5$

On arranging these in ascending order we get $-5<-2$

Step 2:Put $0$ after the negative integers

$-5<-2<0$,

Step 3:Arrange the positive integers

The positive integers are$3,1,8$

$1<3<8$

Step 4:Arrange all these in ascending order

$-5<-2<0<1<3<8$

Hence,$-5<-2<0<1<3<8$
