Order these values from least to greatest?

-pi
-square root of 6
-7/2
-3.25

1 answer

To order the given values from least to greatest, let's convert them into decimal approximations for easier comparison:

  1. \(-\pi \approx -3.14\)
  2. \(\sqrt{6} \approx 2.45\)
  3. \(\frac{7}{2} = 3.5\)
  4. \(3.25\)

Now let's arrange these values:

  • \(-\pi \approx -3.14\) (the smallest)
  • \(3.25\)
  • \(\sqrt{6} \approx 2.45\) (next)
  • \(\frac{7}{2} = 3.5\) (the largest)

Now we see the correct ordering does not have to rearrange values:

Ordered from least to greatest: \(-\pi, 3.25, \sqrt{6}, \frac{7}{2}\)
