Question

Order the following list from least to greatest.
|-18|, -30, 35, -9.3

Answer 1

Answer: -30, -9.3, |-18| (which is now just 18), and 35

Step-by-step explanation: The absolute value sign around |-18| makes the -18 an 18. For example, |-5| will become positive 5. |7| would stay positive even with the absolute value sign.

As negative numbers get bigger, they go left on the number line, making them smaller. Positive numbers go right on the number line, making then bigger.
