Question

Write the following in ascending order.

$\left|-18\right|,-64,-\left|13\right|,-(-46),-\left|-58\right|$

Answer 1

Step 1 : First of all evaluate all the numbers to their simplest form

$\left|-18\right|$ is equal to $18$

$-64$ is in its simplest form

$-\left|13\right|$ is equal to $-13$

$-(-46)$ is equal to $46$

$-\left|-58\right|$ is equal to $-58$

Step 2 : Now we need to arrange the numbers obtained in their simplest form

Arrange $18,-64,-13,46,-58$ in descending order

Which is $-64,-58,-13,18,46$

Hence $-64,-\left|-58\right|,-\left|13\right|,\left|-18\right|,-(-46),$ is in ascending order.
