Sure! Let’s solve the problem step by step.
---
🎯 Task:
Arrange and Write the Integers in Increasing Order
This means we need to sort each set of integers from the
smallest (most negative) to the
largest (most positive).
---
🔢 Key Concept:
- Negative numbers are smaller than positive numbers.
- Among negative numbers, the one with the
larger absolute value is
smaller.
Example: -7 < -3 because -7 is further left on the number line.
- Zero is greater than any negative number but less than any positive number.
