Sure! Let’s solve the worksheet step by step.

## 📌
Part 1: Arrange the decimals in ascending order (smallest to largest)
We are given these 15 decimals:
```
0.104, 2.05, 0.007, 1.43, 1.478,
3.056, 0.563, 1.095, 2.6, 1.203,
6.03, 20.67, 2.045, 0.576, 1.009
```
✔ Step-by-step strategy:
- Compare numbers by their whole number part first.
- If whole parts are equal, compare decimal places one by one (tenths, hundredths, thousandths, etc.).

🔍 Group and sort:
Group 1: Numbers < 1
- 0.007
- 0.104
- 0.563
- 0.576
→ Sort:
0.007, 0.104, 0.563, 0.576
Group 2: Numbers between 1 and 2
- 1.009
- 1.095
- 1.203
- 1.43
- 1.478
→ Sort:
1.009, 1.095, 1.203, 1.43, 1.478
Group 3: Numbers between 2 and 3
- 2.045
- 2.05
- 2.6
→ Sort:
2.045, 2.05, 2.6
Group 4: Numbers ≥ 3
- 3.056
- 6.03
- 20.67
→ Sort:
3.056, 6.03, 20.67

✔ Final Ascending Order:
```
0.007, 0.104, 0.563, 0.576,
1.009, 1.095, 1.203, 1.43, 1.478,
2.045, 2.05, 2.6,
3.056, 6.03, 20.67
```

## 📌
Part 2: Arrange the decimals in descending order (largest to smallest)
Given decimals:
```
0.24, 0.678, 0.056, 0.56, 0.324,
1.206, 1.375, 1.6, 2.045, 1.056,
5.506, 8.09, 2.35, 8.405, 1.28
```
✔ Strategy: Same as above — compare whole parts first, then decimal places.
---
🔍 Group and sort:
Group 1: Numbers > 8
- 8.405
- 8.09
→ Sort:
8.405, 8.09
Group 2: Numbers between 5 and 8
- 5.506
→ Just:
5.506
Group 3: Numbers between 2 and 5
- 2.35
- 2.045
→ Sort:
2.35, 2.045
Group 4: Numbers between 1 and 2
- 1.6
- 1.375
- 1.28
- 1.206
- 1.056
→ Sort:
1.6, 1.375, 1.28, 1.206, 1.056
Group 5: Numbers < 1
- 0.678
- 0.56
- 0.324
- 0.24
- 0.056
→ Sort:
0.678, 0.56, 0.324, 0.24, 0.056

✔ Final Descending Order:
```
8.405, 8.09, 5.506,
2.35, 2.045,
1.6, 1.375, 1.28, 1.206, 1.056,
0.678, 0.56, 0.324, 0.24, 0.056
```
