Explanation:

Step1: Compare negative and positive values

Positive values are greater than negative values. Among negative values, the one with the largest absolute - value is the smallest.

Step2: Find the smallest negative value

- 290.80

= 290.80,

- 150.00

= 150.00,

- 70.00

= 70.00. Since 290.80>150.00>70.00, - 290.80 is the smallest value among all the values in the table.
