Arrange the following decimal numbers in descending order. 3 . 65 , 4 . 298 , 27 . 608 , 2 . 308 , 3 . 956

The process of arranging the numbers from smallest value to largest value is called ascending order. Lets write the decimal number in the place value chart. Hundred Tens Ones . Tenth Hundredth Thousandth 3 . 6 5 0 4 . 2 9 8 2 7 . 6 0 8 2 . 3 0 8 3 . 9 5 6 When we compare the whole part at tens place 2 is only digit. So, 27 . 608 is the greatest number Now when we compare the digits at tens place smaller number is 2 . So, the smaller number is 2 . 308 In the number 3 . 650 and 3 . 956 , whole part is same but digit at tenth place 6 < 9 . So, 3 . 650 is smaller. Thu, the ascending order of the given decimal numbers is 2 . 308 < 3 . 650 < 3 . 956 < 4 . 298 < 27 . 608
