greatest

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate first expression

$-4 - 5 = -9$

Step2: Calculate second expression

$-5 - (-4) = -5 + 4 = -1$

Step3: Calculate third expression

$-4 - (-5) = -4 + 5 = 1$

Step4: Calculate fourth expression

$4 - (-5) = 4 + 5 = 9$

Step5: Order results from least to greatest

$-9 < -1 < 1 < 9$

Answer:

Least to Greatest:

1. $-4 - 5$
2. $-5 - (-4)$
3. $-4 - (-5)$
