Can someone explain me the layoutorder? please!

Hi there! Can someone explain me how the new.LayoutOrder = rank works? So basically this is a global leaderboard, is works very good and i understood everything on it but i don t understand how the order works like this : Dan = 1000, Josh = 500, and dan is top 1, josh is top 2, i thought the layoutorder needs to be new.LayoutOrder = -rank [negated], but in this script is not, i know is the rank index and stuff but i dont understand how the order works, whcih has more priority and etc, if you answer me i ll make sure to make it as accepted answer, please help me i`m desperate..

local dataStoreService = game:GetService('DataStoreService')
local players = game:GetService("Players")
local template = game.Workspace.GlobalBoard.SurfaceGui.Leaderboard.Template
local globalDataStore = dataStoreService:GetOrderedDataStore('MoneyGlobal')
local board = workspace.GlobalBoard
local template = board.SurfaceGui.Leaderboard.Template:Clone()
workspace.GlobalBoard.SurfaceGui.Leaderboard.Template:Destroy()
local function update()
	
	for _, child in pairs(board.SurfaceGui.Leaderboard:GetChildren()) do
		if child:IsA('Frame') then
			child:Destroy()
		end
	end
	
	local success, err = pcall(function()
		local data = globalDataStore:GetSortedAsync(false, 40)
		local page = data:GetCurrentPage()
		for rank, plrData in ipairs(page) do
			local new = template:Clone()
			new.PlrName.Text = game.Players:GetNameFromUserIdAsync(plrData.key)
			new.PlrAmount.Text = plrData.value
			new.Parent = game.Workspace.GlobalBoard.SurfaceGui.Leaderboard
			new.LayoutOrder = rank  -- THIS IS WHAT I DON`T UNDERSTAND!
		end
	end)
end


while true do
	update()
	
	wait(math.random(2,5))
	
	spawn(function()
		for _, plr in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do 
			globalDataStore:SetAsync(plr.UserId, plr.leaderstats.Money.Value)
			wait(math.random(2,4))
		end
	end)
	
	
	
	
end
