How to Arrange Numbers in descending order 15

Let us arrange the numbers 25, 46, 37, 19 in descending order.

We have already learnt how to arrange numbers in ascending order. In the

same way, we can arrange numbers in descending order. Here, we have to pick

up the greatest number each time.

25 46 37 19 25 46 37 19
Step 1. Step 2.

46 46 37

25 46 37 19 25 46 37 19
Step 3. Step 4.
46 37 25 46 37 25 19
Thus, the descending order is 46, 37, 25, 19.
