Answer:

10-30, 10^-99, 10^-5, 1045, 10^14, 10^17

Explanation:

10-30 is the smallest because none of the other numbers are negative.

10^-99 is the second smallest because it is the only number with the highest negative exponent, making it the smallest fraction

10^-5 is the third smallest because it is the only number with the lowest negative exponent

1045 is the third biggest because 10^14 and 10^17 have over 13 zeros.

10^14 is the second largest because it is the only number that has the second largest positive exponent.

10^17 is the largest number because it is the only number with the largest positive exponent.

Hope this helps!
