I think that your List is of type String, that's why the order is different than comparing int. To fix this you parse the String to an int by using the parse method.

  List<String> totals = ["90", "50", "10", "5", "30", "9", "45"];
  totals.sort((a, b) => int.parse(a).compareTo(int.parse(b)));
  print(totals); // [5, 9, 10, 30, 45, 50, 90]

try totals.sort((a, b) => a.compareTo(b));
