Jaiden is ordering 2.615, 2.65, 2.7, and 2.623 from least to greatest. Here are his steps:

(1) Compare and order 2.7 and 2.65 because they have the fewest digits.
(2) Compare each digit of the numbers 2.615 and 2.623.
* The units digits are equal.
* The tenths digits are equal.
* 1 < 2 in the hundredths place so 2.615 < 2.623.
(3) Combine the two lists into one: 2.7, 2.65, 2.615, 2.623.
