It's easier to compare numbers if you write all of them as decimals. Start by writing \(\sqrt 5\), \(\dfrac{1}{3} \), and \(\sqrt 5\) as decimals. Use a calculator to find the decimals for those numbers.

2.23,0.33

Sorry, the last one was sqrt(3) which is 1.732

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

That means we are comparing: 2.23, -0.1, -0.333, 0.5, and 1.732

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Start by putting the positive numbers in order from smallest to largest: 2.23, 0.5, 1.732 Place the above three numbers in order from smallest to largest.
