Answer:

Answer no. 4

Explanation:

1.67 x 10^3 = 1670

16.7 x 10^3 = 16700

those number are clearly the biggest in their categories, so answers 1 and 2 are not worth further consideration. Also note that all the numbers are the same in every answer except 1.67 x 10^3 or 16.7 x 10^3, so the 16.7 might be an error. Fortunately it does not change the answer.

Let's choose between answers 3 and 4. We start with easy numbers:

4^2 = 16

50/3 = 16.6666...

So 50/3 must come after 4^2.

We're left with answer 4.

We can also convert everything to decimal:


15.75\\√(250) = 15.8113883...\\4^2 = 16\\50/3 = 16.666666....\\16.7 \cdot 10^3 = 16700\\1.67 \cdot 10^3 = 1670

from which we can order conventionally
