Comparing Numbers

Comparing Numbers

Comparing numbers is a crucial skill that helps you understand which number is greater or smaller. This skill is essential for ordering numbers, solving problems, and making decisions based on numerical data.

Key Concepts

1. Greater Than (>): This symbol is used to show that one number is larger than another. For example, 5 > 3 means 5 is greater than 3.

2. Less Than (<): This symbol is used to show that one number is smaller than another. For example, 2 < 4 means 2 is less than 4.

3. Equal To (=): This symbol is used to show that two numbers are the same. For example, 6 = 6 means 6 is equal to 6.

Detailed Explanation

When comparing two numbers, you need to look at their digits starting from the left. The number with the larger digit in the highest place value is the greater number. If the digits are the same, move to the next place value to the right until you find a difference.

Examples

Example 1: Compare 45 and 37.

Example 2: Compare 29 and 23.

Analogies to Help Understand

Think of comparing numbers as comparing the height of two buildings. The building with more floors is taller. Similarly, the number with more tens is greater. If both numbers have the same number of tens, compare the ones to determine which is greater.

Understanding how to compare numbers helps you in everyday situations, such as comparing prices, counting objects, and organizing data in order.
