To place the numbers in order as they would appear on a number line, you need to compare the values of the numbers and arrange them from the smallest to the largest.
First, let's take a look at the numbers: −2.0, 0.25, −1.02, 1.98.
Now, let's start comparing:
- Start with the smallest number, which is −2.0.
- Next, compare −2.0 with the remaining numbers.
- Proceed to −1.02.
- Compare −1.02 with the remaining numbers.
- After that, compare 0.25.
- Finally, compare 1.98.
Comparing these numbers, we can determine the correct order:
−2.0, −1.02, 0.25, 1.98.
So, the correct answer is:
−2.0, −1.02, 0.25, 1.98.
