To order the numbers from least to greatest, we first identify the numbers: –5, 1, 3, and –2.

Now let's arrange them in order:

  1. The smallest number is –5.
  2. The next smallest is –2.
  3. Then comes 1.
  4. The largest number is 3.

So, the correct order from least to greatest is: –5, –2, 1, 3.

Thus, the correct answer is: –5, –2, 1, 3.
