Ordering Decimals Worksheet - Arrange decimals in ascending and descending order.

Let’s solve this step by step.

We have two parts:
Part 1: Arrange decimals in ascending order (smallest to largest).
Part 2: Arrange decimals in descending order (largest to smallest).

Part 1: Ascending Order

#### Row 1: 0.104, 2.05, 0.007, 1.43, 1.478

Compare them:

- 0.007 → smallest (only 7 thousandths)
- 0.104 → next (104 thousandths)
- 1.43 → then (1 and 43 hundredths)
- 1.478 → next (1 and 478 thousandths — bigger than 1.43)
- 2.05 → largest (over 2)

✔ Ascending: 0.007, 0.104, 1.43, 1.478, 2.05

#### Row 2: 3.056, 0.563, 1.095, 2.6, 1.203

Compare:

- 0.563 → smallest
- 1.095 → next
- 1.203 → next (bigger than 1.095)
- 2.6 → next
- 3.056 → largest

✔ Ascending: 0.563, 1.095, 1.203, 2.6, 3.056

---

#### Row 3: 6.03, 20.67, 2.045, 0.576, 1.009

Compare:

- 0.576 → smallest
- 1.009 → next
- 2.045 → next
- 6.03 → next
- 20.67 → largest

✔ Ascending: 0.576, 1.009, 2.045, 6.03, 20.67

---

Part 2: Descending Order

#### Row 1: 0.24, 0.678, 0.056, 0.56, 0.324

Compare from largest to smallest:

- 0.678 → largest
- 0.56 → next
- 0.324 → next
- 0.24 → next
- 0.056 → smallest

✔ Descending: 0.678, 0.56, 0.324, 0.24, 0.056

---

#### Row 2: 1.206, 1.375, 1.6, 2.045, 1.056

Compare:

- 2.045 → largest
- 1.6 → next
- 1.375 → next
- 1.206 → next
- 1.056 → smallest

✔ Descending: 2.045, 1.6, 1.375, 1.206, 1.056

---

#### Row 3: 5.506, 8.09, 2.35, 8.405, 1.28

Compare:

- 8.405 → largest
- 8.09 → next
- 5.506 → next
- 2.35 → next
- 1.28 → smallest

✔ Descending: 8.405, 8.09, 5.506, 2.35, 1.28

Final Answer:

Ascending Order:

Row 1: 0.007, 0.104, 1.43, 1.478, 2.05
Row 2: 0.563, 1.095, 1.203, 2.6, 3.056
Row 3: 0.576, 1.009, 2.045, 6.03, 20.67

Descending Order:

Row 1: 0.678, 0.56, 0.324, 0.24, 0.056
Row 2: 2.045, 1.6, 1.375, 1.206, 1.056
Row 3: 8.405, 8.09, 5.506, 2.35, 1.28
