compare whole numbers

A whole number is a number without fractions or decimals. It can be zero or any positive number (0, 1, 2, 3, ...).

To compare two whole numbers, look at their digits from left to right, starting with the highest place value. The number with the larger digit is greater.

The symbol '>' means 'greater than'. For example, 5 > 3 means 5 is greater than 3.

The symbol '<' means 'less than'. For example, 2 < 4 means 2 is less than 4.

The symbol '=' means 'equal to'. For example, 7 = 7 means both sides are equal.

32,918,904 is greater than 32,908,974.

5 hundreds is equal to 500.

To order numbers from least to greatest, compare each number and arrange them starting from the smallest to the largest.

The first step is to compare the digits in the highest place value.

House B is cheaper than House A.
