              AsCeNdiNg ANd desCeNdiNg orders


              There are 5 members in a family. They are standing as per height from the tallest

              to the shortest (in descending order) in box A and from the shortest to the tallest

              (in ascending order) in box B.

              Look at the order of these fruits.

                                                                                        numbers from the smallest to the

                                                                                        order or increasing order.





              These are arranged according to their sizes. Similarly, we

              can also arrange numbers from the smallest to the biggest.

              These numbers are arranged from the smallest to the biggest.

              In the same way, we can also arrange numbers from the                     numbers  from the biggest to the
