Arranging 3-digit numbers means putting them in order from smallest to largest or largest to smallest. To do this, start by looking at the hundreds place, which is the first digit of the number. The number with the smallest hundreds digit comes first. If the hundreds digits are the same, check the tens place next. Still tied? Look at the ones place to decide the order. For example, when arranging 345, 372, and 321, the order from smallest to largest is 321, 345, 372.
