                                            Ascending and Descending Order

             Ascending order means to arrange the numbers from smallest to largest.

             Descending order means to arrange the numbers from largest to smallest.

                                       Ascending order
                                                                                      10




                Example 3 : Arrange the following numbers in ascending order.
                            76832,      47925,      31580,   276814
                Solution :  Put these numbers in place value chart.     L  TTh  Th  H   T O
                            Here 276814 is a 6-digit number             0   7  6   8   3 2
                            while all other numbers have                    4  7   9   2 5
                            5-digits so 276814 is the greatest number       3  1   5   8 0
                                                                        2   7  6   8   1 4
                            Now compare extreme left digit of remaining
                            three numbers.
                            Here       7 > 4 > 3
                            So we can say that
                                            76832 > 47925 > 31580
                            So the ascending order of these numbers is
                                            31580 < 47925 < 76832 < 276814



                Example 4 : Arrange the given numbers in descending order.
                            349160,        53608,        40580,          141837
                Solution :  Put these numbers in place value chart.
                            Here are two 6-digit number and two       L     TTh  Th  H   T  O
                            5-digit numbers.                          3      4   9   1  6 0
                            In 6-digit numbers                               5   3   6  0 8
                                                                   5  >  4
                            349160 > 141837                                  4   0   5  8 0

                            In 5-digit numbers                        1      4   1   8  3 7
                            53608 > 40580
                            So takeing these numbers in descending order
                                   349160 > 141837 > 53608 > 40580
