Place the following distances measured in meters in order.
64.35, 65.19, 64.32, 64.03, 65.02,
64.03, 64.32, 64.35, 65.02, 65.19
To arrange the distances in order, you will start with the smallest distance and go in ascending order:
64.03, 64.32, 64.35, 65.02, 65.19
To place the distances in the correct order, you need to compare each value and arrange them in ascending order from smallest to largest. Here's how you can do it:
1. Compare 64.35 with 65.19:
- Since 64.35 is smaller than 65.19, we know that 64.35 comes before 65.19 in order.
2. Compare 64.35 with 64.32:
- Both values start with 64, so we need to compare the decimal parts.
- The hundredths digit of 64.35 is 3, while the hundredths digit of 64.32 is 2.
- Since 3 is greater than 2, 64.32 comes before 64.35 in order.
3. Compare 64.32 with 64.03:
- Both values start with 64, so we compare the decimal parts.
- The hundredths digit of 64.32 is 2, while the hundredths digit of 64.03 is 0.
- Since 2 is greater than 0, 64.03 comes before 64.32 in order.
4. Compare 64.03 with 65.02:
- These values start with different numbers, so we can immediately determine the order.
- 64.03 comes before 65.02.
5. Compare 65.02 with 65.19:
- Since 65.02 is smaller than 65.19, we know that 65.02 comes before 65.19 in order.
Based on these comparisons, the distances in ascending order are as follows:
64.03, 64.32, 64.35, 65.02, 65.19
