We can convert all the fractions to decimals and then arrange them in ascending order:

- 16/22 ≈ 0.727

- -5/18 ≈ -0.278

- 2/-21 ≈ -0.095

- -7/12 ≈ -0.583

Therefore, the ascending order would be:

2/-21 ≈ -0.095 < -5/18 ≈ -0.278 < -7/12 ≈ -0.583 < 16/22 ≈ 0.727

So the final arrangement in ascending order is:

2/-21, -5/18, -7/12, 16/22
