To order these four negative numbers from least to greatest, we first order their (positive) absolute values from greatest to least.
The tenths digits are all 6, so we can compare the hundredths digits; if there is a tie, we can compare their thousandths digits. The absolute values fall in this order:
The original numbers, therefore, fall in this order:

This box in the table is a question mark, so we will need to use other parts of the table to find the answer.
Use the first row in the table to see that each ant has six legs.
Multiply the number of ants by the number of legs per ant :
4 ants have 24 legs.
Another way to solve is to add the legs of four ants, knowing that each ant has six legs.
