Default problem sorting

I can not get the following to sort correctly,
1
7
3
22 x 8
10 x 17
8 x 11
when I sort these they do as follows
1
3
7
10 x 17
22 x 8
8 x 11
it does fine with the single digits but as soon as there are others it sees
the 10 as a 1 and a 0 so it puts this one before the 8. Changing them to
text does not help. I believe it is in the format but I can't quite figure it
out.
Thanks,
ty
