Numbers can be arranged in two ways. We have the ascending and descending order.
DESCENDING ORDER
To arrange numbers in descending order, it means that the numbers should be arranged from the biggest to the smallest. That is we will start from the big ones to the small ones.
EXAMPLE OF DESCENDING ORDER OF NUMBERS
- 20 19 18 17 16 15 14 13
- 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1
So you can see from the example that, we started arranging the numbers from 20 because 20 is the biggest among the numbers.
EXERCISE
