            Observe the backward coun ng from 10 to 1 :












            Descending Order


               We arrange numbers from big to small.


               First, we select the biggest number,


               then bigger numbers un l we reach the

               smallest one.



            Arrange the given numbers in descending order :





                        4 6 8 7                           3           ____ ____ ____ ____ ____
