Ordering Integers and Using Inequality Signs

The video tutorial explains how to order integers, both positive and negative, using a number line. It introduces the concept of inequality signs with the help of a 'greedy crocodile' analogy to determine which number is greater or smaller. The tutorial covers comparing positive numbers, negative numbers, and a mix of both. It also demonstrates how to arrange numbers in ascending and descending order, emphasizing the use of inequality signs to represent these relationships.
