$- \sqrt{2}$ , $0.42$ , $- \frac{24}{16}$ , $\frac{21}{51}$

Step 1

Convert all numbers to decimals.

$- \sqrt{2} = - 1.41421356$

$0.42 = 0.42$

$- \frac{24}{16} = - 1.5$

$\frac{21}{51} = 0.4117647$

Step 2

Arrange the numbers in ascending order.

$- 1.5, - 1.41421356, 0.4117647, 0.42$

Step 3

Replace the numbers with the original numbers.

$- \frac{24}{16}, - \sqrt{2}, \frac{21}{51}, 0.42$

Step 4

The result can be shown in multiple forms.

Exact Form:

$- \frac{24}{16}, - \sqrt{2}, \frac{21}{51}, 0.42$

Decimal Form:

$- 1.5, - 1.41421356 \dots, 0.41176470 \dots, 0.42$

Mixed Number Form:

$- 1 \frac{1}{2}, - \sqrt{2}, \frac{21}{51}, 0.42$
