Ascending order and descending order

Ascending or increasing order means arranging the numbers from the smallest to the

greatest.
example 3: Arrange the following numbers in ascending order:

32,656; 32,352; 32,682; 32,082
Solution: First, we arrange the given numbers in the tth th H t O

place value chart and then start comparing. 3 2 6 5 6 iii
3 2 3 = 5 < 2 ii
32,082 is the smallest number and 32,682 is 3 2 6 8 2 iv

the greatest number. 3 2 0 8 2 i

Also, 32,352 is smaller than 32,656.
Same Same
So, 32,082 < 32,352 < 32,656 < 32,682
Descending or decreasing order means arranging numbers from the greatest to the

smallest.

example 4: Arrange the following numbers in descending order:
4,356; 35,605; 8,78,956; 67,897

Solution: First, we arrange the given numbers in the L tth th H t O

place value chart and then start comparing. 4 3 5 6 iv
8,78,956 is the greatest number and 3 5 6 0 5 iii

4,356 is the smallest number. 8 7 < 8 9 5 6 ii i

7
Also, 67,897 is greater than 35,605.
So, 8,78,956 > 67,897 > 35,605 > 4,356
