If the numbers are all integers (numbers without decimals), we just place them in order.

However, most likely the numbers we will have to place in order will be either decimals, fractions, or a combination of both.

Therefore, we will look into all three scenarios.

Step 1: Line up the decimal points of each number

Step 2: Make sure there are the same number of decimal places for each number

Step 3: Compare each digit from left to right until a difference is found

Place 3.498, 3.49, 3.4892, and 3.4981 in order from least to greatest

Step 1 3.4983.493.48923.4981

Step 2 3.49803.49003.48923.4981

Step 3 3.4892, 3.49, 3.4980, 3.4981

Step 1: Change everything to a decimal (use division of the top number by the bottom number)

Step 2: Follow steps from the all decimals directions

Order from least to greatest Step 1: Step 2: .25
