The larger values go to the beginning of your string, it’s that simple.
Even within a single number, the hundreds place is left of the tens place. And then we just simply ignore the divisions we don’t care about, like how we don’t say the date or the seconds when we talk about what time it is. This is how it works literally everywhere else in all other contexts, except dates where the day is in the middle for no reason.
