Ascending Order

Ascending order is the arrangement of numbers from the smallest to the largest. When you arrange a set of numbers in ascending order, you start with the smallest number and end with the largest number.

Example:

Arrange the numbers 7, 2, 5, 9, and 3 in ascending order.

1. Start with the smallest number: 2
2. Next smallest number: 3
3. Then 5
4. Then 7
5. Finally, the largest number: 9

Study Guide:

When arranging numbers in ascending order, follow these steps:

1. Identify the smallest number in the set.
2. Place the smallest number first in the arrangement.
3. Identify the next smallest number remaining in the set.
4. Place this number second in the arrangement.
5. Repeat the process until all numbers are arranged in ascending order.

To practice arranging numbers in ascending order, try these exercises:

1. Arrange the numbers 12, 8, 17, 5, and 10 in ascending order.
2. Arrange the numbers 3, 9, 1, 6, and 4 in ascending order.
