Ordering numbers

Smallest on the left, biggest on the right. Easy with whole numbers, sneaky with decimals.

Drag in order

Drag the cards so the numbers go from smallest to biggest.

  • 6.4
  • 7.4
  • 9.9
  • 0.1
  • 9.5
Keep arranging — smallest on the left, biggest on the right.

Tricks for ordering decimals

  • Line up the decimal points first.
  • Pad missing digits with zeros so every number has the same length.
  • Then compare digit-by-digit from the left.
