Did you know?

The symbols < and > look like a crocodile's mouth—it always "eats" the bigger number!

The equals sign (=) was first used in 1557.

We use comparison every day: taller, heavier, faster!

Understand Compare before you start

Read this if you're new to the topic—it will help you know what to do in each problem.

We compare two numbers using symbols: < means "less than," > means "greater than," and = means "equal."

The open side of < or > always faces the bigger number. So 5 > 3 is read "5 is greater than 3."

Examples

7 > 5

3 < 9

4 = 4
