But as I know, when we talk about negative the number which has small power is greater.

Pf stands for picofarad and mf stands for microfarad.
Pf stands for picofarad and mf stands for microfarad.

Pico farad 10^(-12).
Micro farad 10^(-6).
Given that;
0.02*10^-6 = 2*10^-8.
From options it is clear that 2000*10^(-12) = 2*10^(-9).
So option C is correct.
Micro farad 10^(-6).

0.02*10^-6 = 2*10^-8.
From options it is clear that 2000*10^(-12) = 2*10^(-9).
So option C is correct.

@Abdul, you are absolutely correct, but for clear understanding for others:
Note: For negative numbers smaller the value greater it is:
.*. per question, 0.02mf = 2x10^-8.
Option (A) 0.000020f = 2x10^-5.
Option (B) 200,000pf = 2x10^-7.
Option (C) 2000pf = 2x10^-9.
Therefore option (A) > (B) > 2x10^-8 > (C).
Correct answer 0.02mf is only greater than option (C).

1 micro farad = 1000000 pico farad.
0.02 micro farad = 20,000 pico farad.
Which is only greater than 2000pF? Please correct me if an wrong.
0.02 micro farad = 20,000 pico farad.
Which is only greater than 2000pF? Please correct me if an wrong.

0.02*10^-6 = 2*10^-8.
So 2*10^-12 = 2000 pf.
So 2*10^-12 = 2000 pf.
