Question

Order the following integers from the greatest to the least: − 7, 12, − 19, 9, 2

  1. 12 > 9 > 2 > − 7 > 19    
  2. 12 > 9 > 2 > 7 > − 19    
  3. 12 > 9 > − 2 > −7 > − 19    
  4. 12 > 9 > 2 > − 7 > − 19    

hintHint:

An integer is a whole number from the set of negative, non-negative, and positive numbers. To be an integer, a number cannot be a decimal or a fraction.

The correct answer is: 12 > 9 > 2 > − 7 > − 19


    Step 1: The smallest number = − 19; The largest number = 12
    Step 2: Comparing the integers two at a time and ordering them from greatest to least, we get 12 > 9 > 2 > −7 > − 19
