It's C because negative number like -3 and -6 are different than positive. -3 is greater than -6
OpenStudy (sophiab):
wait what how would it be A lol?
OpenStudy (thewafflebro):
its a
jabez177 (jabez177):
C is incorrect.
C. -3, 2, 0, 5
Is that in correct order from least to greatest? :/
OpenStudy (sophiab):

jabez so its a right
jabez177 (jabez177):
|-2| is basically positive 2
OpenStudy (thewafflebro):
wait jabez i think its not a becuz its /-4/ so its positive
OpenStudy (sophiab):
-2 is different from positive 2
jabez177 (jabez177):
I don't know.
Do you think it's A?
Can you try and set it up without the absolute values?

OpenStudy (thewafflebro):
just give answer im confused
jabez177 (jabez177):
@sophiab, That is Absolute value -2
Anything in absolute value is always going to be positive.
There is never a negative.
jabez177 (jabez177):
I can't give the answer.
Try and set it up differently to see why you chose A and not B.
OpenStudy (thewafflebro):
im confused
OpenStudy (sophiab):
ok then lets just wait and see
