Place in order as you'd see on a number line: 5.6, -2.99, -13.1, 6 1/2, 0.199

1 answer

To place the numbers in order as you would see on a number line, we need to identify their values:

  1. -13.1 (negative, far left)
  2. -2.99 (still negative, but closer to zero)
  3. 0.199 (positive and small)
  4. 5.6 (positive)
  5. 6 1/2 (which is equal to 6.5, also positive and larger than 5.6)

Putting them in order from smallest to largest, we get:

-13.1, -2.99, 0.199, 5.6, 6.5 (or 6 1/2)
