okay so what do you think is the smallest number of the three?
46.581 or 46.95 ? Remember look at the # after the decimal point if the number in front of the decimal point is equal.

Order numbers by the left-most number first, then by the right number
If you have the numbers: 1.1, 1.01, and 2... 2 is greater than both (left side is the largest). 1.1 is larger than 1.01 (right side is larger, left side is the same)
Apply this to the numbers you have
In my example, 2 is also 2.0
