To put the numbers in order from least to greatest, let's convert all of them to decimal form:

  1. 13: This is already a whole number (13.0).
  2. 4/5: When converted to decimal, 4/5 = 0.8.
  3. 0.9: This is already in decimal form (0.9).
  4. 7/35: This simplifies to 1/5 = 0.2, which in decimal form is 0.2.
  5. -13.5: This is already in decimal form (-13.5).

Now we have:

  • 13.0
  • 0.8
  • 0.9
  • 0.2
  • -13.5

Now we can arrange them in order from least to greatest:

  • -13.5
  • 0.2
  • 0.8
  • 0.9
  • 13.0

So the final order from least to greatest is:

  • -13.5, 0.2, 0.8, 0.9, 13.0
