Answer:
-4, 1.5, 8 squared.
Step-by-step explanation
All of these numbers except the -4 are positive. Negative numbers are ALWAYS smaller than positive numbers. So, -4 is without a doubt going to be the smallest.
To square a number, you multiply a number by itself. 8 x 8 = 64.
In the decimal 1.5, the number in the ones place is a 1. Is 64 greater than one? Of course it is. So, 8 squared which is 64 is greater than 1.5
You can check to see that 64 is greater by subtracting 1.5 from 64. The answer is a positive number.
So, the answer from least to greatest is: -4, 1.5, and then 8 squared.
