-10, -1.75, -3/4, 1/2, 3, 9
_____________________________
-3/4 converts to -0.75,
and 1/2 converts to 0.5. With -10 being farthest from zero on the number line, it would be the smallest. -1.75 would be the second smallest. Keeping in mind that -3/4 converts to -0.75, it would be the 3rd smallest. 1/2, or 0.5 would be greater, as it is the smallest POSITIVE number. Then you do 3, as it as a whole number, but still not the greatest. 9 would be the greatest.
