Exercise 7 Page 275

Let's approach ordering the given set from least to greatest one number at a time.

First Value

First, we have -0.615. It is in decimal form, we do not have to rewrite this number. We will rewrite the other numbers as decimals to order them. - 0.615

Second Value

Next, we have - 58. We can rewrite this number as a decimal. Let's take a look.

Next, we can compare this number to -0.615. -5/8<-0.615

Third Value

We do not have to rewrite the third value, -0.62. Let's compare this number to the other two. - 58 < -0.615 <= -0.62

Combining the Numbers

Now, we can write the set in order from least to greatest. {-5/8, -0.615, -0.62 }
