Put these numbers in order of their distance from 0 on the number line, starting with the smallest distance: -26, -12.7, -9/2, 2/100, 7, 11 1/4 , 41/2, 35

Answer :

[tex]\begin{gathered} -\frac{9}{2}=-4.5 \\ \frac{2}{100}=0.02 \\ 11\frac{1}{4}=11.25 \\ \frac{41}{2}=20.5 \end{gathered}[/tex]

The ordered list is:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 0.02,-4.5,7,11.25,-12.7,20.5,-26,35 \\ or \\ \frac{2}{100},-\frac{9}{2},7,11\frac{1}{4},-12.7,\frac{41}{2},-26,35 \end{gathered}[/tex]
