Ordering decimals from greatest to least means we list them from the biggest number to the smallest number. When doing this, line up each of your numbers by their decimal points. We look at the tenths place first and order them according to that number. Then move on to the hundredths place and so on until each of the numbers are lined up from greatest to smallest. For this problem that would look like this:

The higher negative numbers will be the least numbers.

Start with the negative numbers first.

The smaller of the two positive decimals is .

Order from least to greatest.

The answer is:

Remember, when dealing with negative numbers, the larger the decimal, the smaller the value.

We eliminate as it is the smallest decimal value, however the greatest with the negative sign present.

By comparing to the hundredths digit, has the highest hundredths digit but is the smallest value since we have a negative sign present.

is our answer.

Trailing zeros at the end of a decimal do not increase or decrease the value of a given decimal. However, zeros that appear after the decimal point and precede a non-zero number decrease the value of the number.

The digit in the hundredths place is the one two decimal places to the right of the decimal. That digit is 9. Do not confuse the hundredths with the hundreds place, which is three spaces to the left of the decimal.

The answer is 9.

Since the range is from to , we have negative decimals. We need to see if any operations will generate positive decimals. Only does that as two negatives becomes positive when multiplied.

When dealing with negative numbers, remember the largest decimal is the least value which will be since their tenths digit is greater than the rest.

The rest of the order will be .

The hundredths digit in is greater than the rest.

So our order is

.

Since each decimal have the same tenths digit, we compare the hundredths digit. is the greatest of all decimals in the set since the rest have as the hundredths digit.

Next, we compare the rest.

The more s there are, the more precise the decimal.

is the order.

The final order is

.

To rank, we check the tenths digit. are the smallest in the set.

Next, we look at the hundredths digit. is greater than , so the rank is .

Since the next three numbers have differnt tenths digit, we just put in numerical order.

Final answer should be

.
