Apparently i got this wrong, but my teacher is giving me a chance to redo.

The question was to put these numbers in decreasing order.

_/13, pi, 1.3, -0.7, -8/5 (and i put them in this order)

She gave me a 0/2 and said think about how you would place them on a number line.

Any help would be great

-8/5 = -1 3/5
I will assume the _/13 is √13 , which would be the largest, so

√13, π, 1.3, -.7, -8/5
are indeed in the correct descending order.

If that is how you had it, and you did not have a typo, ask your teacher to reconsider.
Yes I believe decreasing order is largest to smallest is it not?

Im assuming she mustve wanted it increasing order, based off the fact she said think of a number line
Yes, decreasing is from largest to smallest

So to make her happy, just turn them around.
