Descending Order

Descending order means from the largest to the smallest.

1. Write 439, 346, 422 in descending order.

Let us observe the digits in hundreds places.
439, 346, 422

These are 4, 3 and 4.
‘4’ is repeated.

This means two numbers have ‘4’ in their hundreds place.

So we compare their tens digits.

439, 422

as 3 > 2 we can say 439 > 422.

Also 422 > 346.

This means 439 > 422 > 346.

The descending order is: 439, 422, 346
