Solve {c}{-3}{(-15)-(-1)}{+2/3}

$$\left. \begin{array} { c } { - 3 } \\ { ( - 15 ) - ( - 1 ) } \\ { + \frac { 2 } { 3 } } \end{array} \right.$$

Sort

$$-14,-3,\frac{2}{3}$$

Solution Steps

The opposite of -1 is 1.

$$sort(-3,-15+1,\frac{2}{3})$$

Add -15 and 1 to get -14.

$$sort(-3,-14,\frac{2}{3})$$

Convert decimal numbers in the list -3,-14,\frac{2}{3} to fractions.

$$-3,-14,\frac{2}{3}$$

To sort the list, start from a single element -3.

$$-3$$

Insert -14 to the appropriate location in the new list.

$$-14,-3$$

Insert \frac{2}{3} to the appropriate location in the new list.

$$-14,-3,\frac{2}{3}$$

Evaluate

$$-3,\ -14,\ \frac{2}{3}$$
