Ordering whole numbers In Grade 4 you learnt how to order and arrange numbers in a specific order. Do you still remember how it works? Briefly revise ordering whole numbers. Ordering means to arrange or organise numbers.

order = arrange

We can order or arrange numbers in different ways: from GREAT to small

OR from small to GREAT Study the number set:

{4 952; 4 592; 5 942; 2 924} Arrange the numbers from great to small. Step 1:

Step 2:

Choose the greatest number and write it down first. The greatest number in this set is 5 942.

Now cross out the greatest number in the number set.

{4 952; 4 592; 5 942; 2 924} You can no longer choose the number 5 942.
