Place in order as you’d see on a number line: 5.6, -2.99, -13.1, 6 ½, 0.199

Answer 1

To place the numbers in order on a number line, we first identify their approximate positions:

1. -13.1 (a negative number, far to the left)
2. -2.99 (still negative, but closer to zero)
3. 0.199 (just above zero)
4. 5.6 (a positive number, more than 5)
5. 6 ½ (which is 6.5, just a little more than 6)

Now, arranging them in increasing order, we have:

-13.1, -2.99, 0.199, 5.6, 6.5 (or 6 ½)
