Answer:

The second option.

Explanation:

We can figure this out by going down each option and checking if it works and is arranged from least to greatest.

The first option provides the numbers -3.5, -1/4, 2, 1/3 in that order.

This does not work because 1/3 is less than 1 which is less than 2. 1/3 should come before 2.

The second option provides the numbers -3.5, -1/4, 1/3, 2.

This option does work, because -3.5 is less than -1/4, -1/4 is less than 1/3 because it is negative, and 1/3 is less than 2.

If we look at this on a number line, the numbers that are smaller will appear farther to the left on the number line.
