This guide helps you compare whole numbers using inequalities (<, >, =). Start by examining the number of digits: a number with more digits is larger. If they have the same amount, compare place values from left to right. Identify the first greater place value to determine which number is larger. Finally, remember to write the inequality so it "eats" the bigger number. This step-by-step approach will enhance your understanding of comparing whole numbers effectively.

Problem: Write the inequality (<,>,=) to compare each number. • Step 1: Look and see which number has more digits. 4 4 5,436 _ 5,473 =
Problem: Write the inequality (<,>,=) to compare each number. • Step 2: If a number has more digits it is automatically bigger. 5,436 _ 5,473 =
Problem: Write the inequality (<,>,=) to compare each number. • Step 3: If they have the same amount of digits, compare the largest place value. 5,436 _ 5,473 =
Problem: Write the inequality (<,>,=) to compare each number. • Step 3: If one is bigger, than the whole number is automatically bigger. 5,436 _ 5,473 =
Problem: Write the inequality (<,>,=) to compare each number. • Step 4: If they are the same, move to the right of each number until you find a place value that is greater. 5,436 _ 5,473 =
Problem: Write the inequality (<,>,=) to compare each number. • Step 5: Once you find a place value that is greater, it makes the whole number greater. 5,436 _ 5,473 =
Problem: Write the inequality (<,>,=) to compare each number. • Step 6: write your inequality so it “eats” the bigger number. < 5,436 _ 5,473 =
