First convert them all to proper scientific notation.
The first number needs to be between greater or equal to 1 and less than 10.
0.98x10%5E%28-1%29=9.8x10%5E%28-2%29
11x10%5E0=1.1x10%5E1
That makes it straightforward to place them in order.
9.8x10%5E%28-2%29
2.4x10%5E%28-1%29
1.1x10%5E%281%29
1.6x10%5E3
