Answer 1

To order the given numbers from least to greatest, we first evaluate each number in its standard form:

1. **0.00627** - This is already in standard form.
2. **27.6 × 10⁻²** = 0.276 - Move the decimal point 2 places left.
3. **2.4 × 10³** = 2400 - Move the decimal point 3 places right.
4. **38,900** - This is already in standard form.
5. **1.2 × 10⁴** = 12000 - Move the decimal point 4 places right.
6. **5.5 × 10⁴** = 55000 - Move the decimal point 4 places right.

Now, we can list them out:

- 0.00627
- 0.276
- 2400
- 12000
- 38900
- 55000

Now, placing them in order from least to greatest:

1. **0.00627**
2. **0.276** (27.6 × 10⁻²)
3. **2400** (2.4 × 10³)
4. **12000** (1.2 × 10⁴)
5. **38900**
6. **55000** (5.5 × 10⁴)

So, the ordered list from least to greatest is:

**0.00627, 27.6 × 10⁻², 2.4 × 10³, 1.2 × 10⁴, 38,900, 5.5 × 10⁴.**
