Final answer:

To order the given numbers from least to greatest, start by converting the mixed number to a decimal. Then compare the values to determine the order.

Step-by-step explanation:

To order the given numbers from least to greatest, we need to compare their values.

  1. -4 1/3
  2. -4.39
  3. -4.33
  4. -4.3

First, we can convert -4 1/3 to a decimal. -4 1/3 is equal to approximately -4.33. Comparing the numbers, we can see that -4.33 is the smallest, followed by -4.3, then -4.39, and finally -4 1/3.
