                  ORDERING NUMBERS

                  A dance reality show is conducted in Mumbai. The contestants have to perform in

                  order of the numbers allotted to them.

                  To know who will

                  perform first and
                  who will perform

                  last among the four

                  contestants shown

                  in the picture, we

                  can arrange the
                  allotted numbers

                  in order from the

                  smallest to the

                  greatest or greatest

                  to the smallest.

                  •  95 is the smallest
                      number. So, we                           110                 95        152              193

                      write it first.

                  •  110 is the smallest of the remaining three numbers. So, we write it next to 95,

                      that is, 95 < 110.

                  •  152 is the smaller of the remaining two. So, we write it next to 110, that is,

                      95 < 110 < 152.

                  •  193 is the greatest. So, we write it the last as 95 < 110 < 152 < 193.

                  Arranging numbers from the smallest to the greatest is called ascending order or

                  increasing order.

                  Thus, 95 < 110 < 152 < 193 is the ascending order of the allotted numbers.

                  Arranging numbers from the greatest to the smallest is called descending order or

                  decreasing order.

                  Thus, 193 > 152 > 110 > 95 is the descending order of the given numbers.
