You can put this solution on YOUR website!
If you were to draw a number line and plot each number given on this number line, the smallest number would be the number that is at the left-most position.


It turns out that -204 would be this number since it is the left-most on the number line (out of the given set of numbers).


So the smallest number is -204.
