If \(A=-\sqrt{28}\), \(B=-5.3\), and \(C=-\frac{16}{3}\), which of these numbers is located farthest to the left on the number line?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: C

Since \(\sqrt{28}\approx 5.292\), we get \(A\approx -5.292\). Also, \(B=-5.3\) and \(C=-\frac{16}{3}\approx -5.333\). Among negative numbers, the smaller number lies farther to the left on the number line. Thus, \(-5.333<-5.3<-5.292\), so \(C\) is farthest left. Exam tip: When comparing negative numbers, the one with the greater magnitude is the smaller number.
