Required

Sort in ascending order

To write in ascending order, means that the number must increase from left to right.

So, we have:

1. -5, 2, 1, -8

From left to right, we have:


-8 < -5 < 1 < 2

Hence, the sorted list: -8 , -5 , 1 , 2

2. -4, -3, -5, 2

From left to right, we have:


-5 < -4 < -3 < 2

Hence, the sorted list: -5, -4 , -3 , 2

3. -10, -15,-7​

From left to right, we have:


-15 < -10 < -7

Hence, the sorted list: -15, -10, -7
