Problem
Which list of numbers is ordered from greatest to least? \[ -2 \frac{1}{5},\left|2 \frac{1}{4}\right|, 2.23,-2 \] \( \left|2 \frac{1}{4}\right|, 2.23,-2,-2 \frac{1}{5} \) \( -2,-2 \frac{1}{5},\left|2 \frac{1}{4}\right|, 2.23 \) \( -2 \frac{1}{5},-2,2.23,\left|2 \frac{1}{4}\right| \)
Solution
Step 1 ：\(\left| 2\frac{1}{4} \right|= 2.25 \)
Step 2 ：List: 2.25, 2.23, -2, -2 \frac{1}{5}
Step 3 ：Order: \( 2.25, 2.23, -2, -2 \frac{1}{5} \)
