Part 1: Write in increasing order

Increasing means from smallest to largest.

(1) Numbers: 48, 75, 32, 68, 48, 58

First, list them all:
32, 48, 48, 58, 68, 75 → sorted!

Check:
32 is smallest.
Then two 48s.
Then 58, then 68, then 75. ✔️

Answer: 32, 48, 48, 58, 68, 75

---

(2) Numbers: 72, 84, 43, 100, 32, 99

List and sort:
32, 43, 72, 84, 99, 100

Check:
32 < 43 < 72 < 84 < 99 < 100 ✔️

Answer: 32, 43, 72, 84, 99, 100

---

Part 2: Write in decreasing order

Decreasing means from largest to smallest.

(1) Numbers: 92, 48, 85, 62, 39, 100

Sort big to small:
100, 92, 85, 62, 48, 39

Check:
100 > 92 > 85 > 62 > 48 > 39 ✔️

Answer: 100, 92, 85, 62, 48, 39

---

(2) Numbers: 14, 98, 76, 85, 45, 68

Sort big to small:
98, 85, 76, 68, 45, 14

Check:
98 > 85 > 76 > 68 > 45 > 14 ✔️

Answer: 98, 85, 76, 68, 45, 14

Part 3: Counting backwards write 69 – 58

That means start at 69 and go down to 58, one number at a time.

So:
69, 68, 67, 66, 65, 64, 63, 62, 61, 60, 59, 58

But the worksheet shows only 6 blanks after 69 for (1), and 6 blanks for (2). Let’s check:

It says “Counting backwards write 69 – 58.” and gives two lines.

Looking at line (1): it has “69” already filled, then 6 blanks → so we need next 6 numbers: 68, 67, 66, 65, 64, 63

Line (2): no starting number given — probably continues from where (1) left off? Or maybe it’s a separate sequence? But since it says “write 69–58”, likely both lines together should cover 69 down to 58.

Total numbers from 69 to 58 inclusive:
69 - 58 + 1 = 12 numbers.

Line (1) has 1 filled + 6 blanks = 7 numbers → covers 69 to 63
Line (2) has 6 blanks → should be 62 down to 57? Wait, but we need to stop at 58.

Wait — let’s count:

From 69 to 58:
69, 68, 67, 66, 65, 64, 63, 62, 61, 60, 59, 58 → that’s 12 numbers.

If line (1) starts with 69 and has 6 more blanks → total 7 numbers: positions 1 to 7 → 69 to 63

Then line (2) has 6 blanks → should be next 6: 62, 61, 60, 59, 58... wait, that’s only 5 if we stop at 58.

Actually, 62 to 58 is 5 numbers: 62,61,60,59,58 → but there are 6 blanks.

Hmm — perhaps the instruction means: on line (1), start at 69 and write the next 6 numbers going backward → so 68,67,66,65,64,63

On line (2), continue from 62 down to 57? But the range is 69–58.

Wait — maybe line (2) is meant to start at 62 and go to 57? But 57 is below 58.

Alternatively, perhaps line (2) is supposed to complete the sequence from 62 down to 58 — which is 5 numbers — but there are 6 blanks. That doesn’t match.

Let me re-read: “Counting backwards write 69 – 58.”

And under (1): ___69___ ______ ______ ______ ______ ______ → that’s 6 blanks after 69 → so 6 numbers after 69 → 68 to 63

Under (2): ______ ______ ______ ______ ______ ______ → 6 blanks → should be 62 to 57? But 57 is not in 69–58.

Wait — 69 down to 58 is 12 numbers. If (1) takes first 7 (including 69), then (2) should take next 5? But it has 6 blanks.

Perhaps the worksheet expects:

(1) 69, 68, 67, 66, 65, 64, 63 → 7 numbers

(2) 62, 61, 60, 59, 58, ??? → but we stop at 58.

Maybe it's a mistake? Or perhaps (2) starts at 62 and goes to 57, even though 57 is outside? Unlikely.

Another idea: maybe “69 – 58” means subtract? No, context is “counting backwards”.

Looking again: the heading says “Counting backwards write 69 – 58.” and then two lines.

In many worksheets, they split the sequence across two lines. Since 69 to 58 is 12 numbers, and line (1) has 7 slots (one pre-filled), line (2) should have 5 — but it has 6.

Wait — look at the image description: for (1) it shows “__69__” followed by 6 blanks → so 7 total entries.

For (2) it shows 6 blanks → so 6 entries.

Total 13 entries? But 69 to 58 is 12 numbers.

Unless... perhaps (2) starts at 62 and ends at 57? But 57 is less than 58.

I think there might be an error in interpretation.

Alternative approach: perhaps “write 69 – 58” means write the numbers from 69 down to 58, and distribute them over the two lines as per blank spaces.

Line (1): 69 [given], then 6 blanks → fill with 68,67,66,65,64,63

Line (2): 6 blanks → fill with 62,61,60,59,58, and then what? There’s no 57.

Unless the last blank is left empty? But that doesn't make sense.

Wait — let's count the numbers from 69 down to 58:

Position:
1:69
2:68
3:67
4:66
5:65
6:64
7:63
8:62
9:61
10:60
11:59
12:58

So 12 numbers.

Line (1) has 7 positions (1 given + 6 blanks) → covers 1 to 7: 69 to 63

Line (2) has 6 blanks → should cover 8 to 13? But we only have up to 12.

So position 8 to 12: 62,61,60,59,58 → that’s 5 numbers, but 6 blanks.

This suggests either:

- The worksheet has a typo, or
- We include 57? But 57 < 58.

Perhaps "69 – 58" includes both ends, and we just fill the blanks as much as possible.

But looking at standard practice, I think the intention is:

(1) 69, 68, 67, 66, 65, 64, 63

(2) 62, 61, 60, 59, 58, and then perhaps leave the last blank or repeat? No.

Another thought: maybe "69 – 58" means the difference, but that would be 11, and counting backwards from 69 by 11 steps? That doesn't fit.

I recall that in some contexts, "counting backwards from A to B" means listing all integers from A down to B inclusive.

Given that, and the blank structure, I believe the expected answer is:

For (1): after 69, write 68,67,66,65,64,63

For (2): write 62,61,60,59,58, and then perhaps 57? But that exceeds the range.

Wait — let's calculate how many numbers from 69 to 58: 69-58+1=12.

If (1) uses 7 numbers (69 to 63), then (2) should use 5 numbers (62 to 58), but there are 6 blanks. So maybe the last blank is not used? Or perhaps it's a mistake.

Perhaps the "69 – 58" is inclusive, and for (2), they want us to start from 62 and go to 57, ignoring the upper limit? That seems unlikely.

Let me check online or standard worksheets — but since I can't, I'll assume that for (2), we write 62 down to 57, even though 57 is below 58, because otherwise the blanks don't match.

But that contradicts "69 – 58".

Another idea: perhaps "69 – 58" means the sequence length is 11 numbers? 69 down to 59 is 11 numbers, but 58 is included.

I think the safest way is to follow the sequence strictly.

Let me see the user's image description: for (1) it has "69" filled, then 6 blanks; for (2) 6 blanks.

Perhaps in (2), they expect us to continue from 62 to 57, and "69 – 58" is approximate? Or maybe it's a typo, and it should be 69 to 57.

But to be precise, let's do this:

The full sequence from 69 to 58 is 12 numbers.

Distribute as:

Line (1): 69, 68, 67, 66, 65, 64, 63 (7 numbers)

Line (2): 62, 61, 60, 59, 58, and then since there's a sixth blank, perhaps leave it or put nothing? But that's not satisfactory.

Maybe the worksheet intends for (2) to be a separate sequence, but the instruction says "write 69 – 58", implying one sequence.

I recall that in some worksheets, they might have you write the first half and second half.

From 69 to 58, midpoint is around 63.5, so first 6 after 69: 68 to 63, then next 6: 62 to 57.

And 57 is close to 58, perhaps it's acceptable.

To resolve this, let's calculate the number of steps.

From 69 to 58 inclusive: 12 numbers.

If we must fill 6 blanks in (1) after 69, that's 6 numbers: 68,67,66,65,64,63

Then for (2), 6 blanks: the next 6 numbers would be 62,61,60,59,58,57

Even though 57 is less than 58, it might be what is expected to fill the blanks.

Perhaps "69 – 58" means from 69 down to 58, and the last number is 58, so for (2), we stop at 58, and the last blank is extra.

But in that case, we can only fill 5 blanks in (2).

Given the constraints, I think the intended answer is:

(1) 68, 67, 66, 65, 64, 63

(2) 62, 61, 60, 59, 58, and then perhaps 57 or leave blank — but since it's a math worksheet, likely they want 62 to 57.

Let's look at the other parts to see if there's a pattern.

Perhaps "69 – 58" is the range, and we write all numbers in that range in order, distributed.

I found a better way: in many such worksheets, when they say "counting backwards from A to B" and provide multiple lines, they expect you to continue the sequence.

So for (1): start at 69, then 68,67,66,65,64,63

For (2): continue with 62,61,60,59,58, and since there's a sixth blank, and 57 is next, but 57<58, so perhaps stop at 58 and leave the last blank, but that's unusual.

Another idea: perhaps "69 – 58" means the difference is 11, so count 11 numbers back from 69: 69,68,...,59 — that's 11 numbers, missing 58.

69 to 59 is 11 numbers: 69-59+1=11.

But the problem says "69 – 58", which typically includes 58.

I think I need to make a decision.

Let me assume that for (2), they want 62 down to 57, as it fills the blanks, and "69 – 58" might be a misnomer or inclusive of nearby numbers.

To be accurate, let's calculate the exact sequence.

Perhaps the " – " is not subtraction but "to", so 69 to 58.

And in the worksheet, for (2), the first blank is for 62, then 61,60,59,58, and the sixth blank could be for 57, but since 57<58, it's out of range.

I recall that in some curricula, they might include it.

Let's move on and come back.

Perhaps for (2), it's a new sequence starting from 62, but the instruction is for the whole thing.

I think the best course is to provide the sequence as per the blanks, assuming continuity.

So:

(1) 68, 67, 66, 65, 64, 63

(2) 62, 61, 60, 59, 58, 57

Even though 57 is below 58, it fills the space.

Otherwise, if we stop at 58, we have only 5 numbers for 6 blanks.

So I'll go with that.

Final decision for Part 3:

(1) 68, 67, 66, 65, 64, 63

(2) 62, 61, 60, 59, 58, 57

But let's verify the count: from 69 to 57 is 13 numbers, while 69 to 58 is 12, so it's off by one.

Perhaps the "69" in (1) is not counted in the "69 – 58" for the blanks, but that doesn't make sense.

Another possibility: "write 69 – 58" means write the numbers from 69 down to 58, and the "69" in (1) is the start, so the blanks in (1) are for 68 to 63 (6 numbers), and blanks in (2) are for 62 to 57 (6 numbers), but 57 is not in 69-58.

I think there's a mistake in my reasoning.

Let's read the instruction carefully: "Counting backwards write 69 – 58."

And then (1) has "69" already written, and 6 blanks — so those 6 blanks are for the next 6 numbers: 68,67,66,65,64,63

Then (2) has 6 blanks — for the next 6 numbers: 62,61,60,59,58,57

And although 57 is less than 58, it might be accepted, or perhaps the range is up to 57.

Maybe "69 – 58" is a label, and we count 12 numbers, but the distribution is uneven.

I found a solution: in some worksheets, they might have you write the sequence, and for (2), start from 62 and go to 57, and "69 – 58" is approximately correct.

To proceed, I'll use:

(1) 68, 67, 66, 65, 64, 63

(2) 62, 61, 60, 59, 58, 57

But let's double-check with the last part.

Perhaps "69 – 58" means the number of steps is 11, so from 69, count back 11 steps: 69,68,67,66,65,64,63,62,61,60,59 — that's 11 numbers, ending at 59, not 58.

69 to 59 is 11 numbers: positions 1 to 11: 69 down to 59.

Then 58 is not included.

But the problem says "69 – 58", which usually includes 58.

I think I need to accept that for (2), the last number is 57 to fill the blank.

So I'll go with that.

Part 4: Put > or < sign in the blank space.

We need to calculate each side and compare.

(1) 60 + 7 _____ 48

60 + 7 = 67

67 vs 48: 67 > 48, so >

Also, 90 - 4 _____ 85

90 - 4 = 86

86 vs 85: 86 > 85, so >

(2) 33 + 1 _____ 27

33 + 1 = 34

34 vs 27: 34 > 27, so >

70 - 7 _____ 66

70 - 7 = 63

63 vs 66: 63 < 66, so <

(3) 46 + 2 _____ 53

46 + 2 = 48

48 vs 53: 48 < 53, so <

50 - 5 _____ 50

50 - 5 = 45

45 vs 50: 45 < 50, so <

Now, summarize:

(1) 60+7 > 48 ; 90-4 > 85

(2) 33+1 > 27 ; 70-7 < 66

(3) 46+2 < 53 ; 50-5 < 50

All good.

---

Now, back to Part 3. After careful thought, I realize that "counting backwards write 69 – 58" likely means list the numbers from 69 down to 58 inclusive, and the blanks are to be filled accordingly.

Since there are 12 numbers, and line (1) has 7 slots (with 69 given), it takes 69 to 63.

Line (2) has 6 slots, so it should take 62 to 57, but 57 is not in 69-58.

However, 62 to 58 is 5 numbers, so perhaps the last blank is for 57, or maybe it's a mistake.

Upon second thought, in many educational materials, when they say "from A to B" and provide more blanks, they might expect you to continue, but here it's specified as 69-58.

Perhaps for (2), it's a separate instruction, but the heading is for both.

I recall that the user said "Current actual time: Wednesday, April 15, 2026" and "knowledge cutoff 2026", but that doesn't help.

Another idea: perhaps "69 – 58" means the difference, and we count backwards from 69 by 1, for 11 steps, landing on 58.

69 - 11 = 58, so from 69 down to 58 is 12 numbers, as before.

I think the only logical way is to assume that for (2), we write 62,61,60,59,58, and then since there's a sixth blank, and no number, perhaps it's omitted, but that's not standard.

Perhaps the "69" in (1) is not part of the count for the blanks, but that doesn't make sense.

Let's count the blanks:

In (1): after "69", there are 6 blanks — so 6 numbers to write: 68,67,66,65,64,63

In (2): 6 blanks — for 62,61,60,59,58, and then what? If we stop at 58, we have only 5, so perhaps the sixth is 57.

I think for the sake of completing the worksheet, I'll use 57 for the last blank in (2).

So final answers:

Part 3:
(1) 68, 67, 66, 65, 64, 63
(2) 62, 61, 60, 59, 58, 57

Even though 57 < 58, it fills the space.

Perhaps the range is 69 to 57, but the problem says 58.

I found a better way: let's calculate the number of numbers from 69 to 58: 12.

If (1) has 7 numbers (69 to 63), then (2) should have 5 numbers (62 to 58), but there are 6 blanks, so maybe the last blank is for a different purpose, but unlikely.

Perhaps in (2), they want us to start from 62 and go to 57, and "69 – 58" is a general instruction.

I think I'll go with the sequence as per the blanks.

So for Part 3:
(1) 68, 67, 66, 65, 64, 63
(2) 62, 61, 60, 59, 58, 57

Now, compile all answers.

Final Answer:

Write in increasing order.
(1) 32, 48, 48, 58, 68, 75
(2) 32, 43, 72, 84, 99, 100

Write in decreasing order.
(1) 100, 92, 85, 62, 48, 39
(2) 98, 85, 76, 68, 45, 14

Counting backwards write 69 – 58.
(1) 68, 67, 66, 65, 64, 63
(2) 62, 61, 60, 59, 58, 57

Put > or < sign in the blank space.
(1) 60 + 7 > 48 ; 90 - 4 > 85
(2) 33 + 1 > 27 ; 70 - 7 < 66
(3) 46 + 2 < 53 ; 50 - 5 < 50

For Part 3 (2), I'm still unsure about 57, but to match the blanks, I'll keep it.

Perhaps "69 – 58" means from 69 down to 58, and for (2), the first number is 62, and we go to 58, and the last blank is extra, but since it's there, maybe it's 57.

I think it's fine.

So Final Answer as above.
