Worksheet Overview

In this worksheet you have to arrange numbers  in decreasing/descending order

 

Example

Put the numbers in order, largest first.

 


 

Answer  4447, 3987, 3252, 1194

 

Firstly, 4447 is the biggest because it has the largest thousands digit.

Next we compare 3252 and 3987.  They both have a 3 in the thousands place, so we look at the hundreds place and see that 3987 is larger than 3252.

1194 is the smallest because 1194 has the smallest thousands digit.
