Problem 1: Which choice shows the values from greatest to least?
We need to arrange numbers from largest (most positive) to smallest (most negative).
Numbers involved: -6, -3, 9, 6
Greatest to least: 9, 6, -3, -6
Look at options:
A. -6, -3, 9, 6 → starts with negatives → wrong
B. -6, -3, 6, 9 → ends with positives → wrong
C. 9, 6, -3, -6 →
✔ correct order
D. 9, 6, -6, -3 → -6 is less than -3 → wrong
✔ Answer:
C

Problem 2: Which choice shows the values from greatest to least?
Numbers: 10, -2, -5, -3
Greatest to least: 10, then -2 (since -2 > -3 > -5), then -3, then -5
So: 10, -2, -3, -5
Check options:
A. 10, -2, -5, -3 → -5 comes before -3? No, -5 < -3 → wrong
B. 10, -2, -3, -5 →
✔ correct
C. -2, -3, 10, -5 → starts with negative → wrong
D. -5, -3, -2, 10 → ascending → wrong
✔ Answer:
B
