Let’s go row by row and count the coins on each side. Then we’ll compare them using <, =, or >.

Remember:
- Penny = 1 cent
- Nickel = 5 cents
- Dime = 10 cents
- Quarter = 25 cents

We’ll add up the value of each group of coins, then compare.

Row 1:

Left: 3 pennies + 1 nickel → 3×1 + 5 = 8 cents
Right: 1 quarter + 4 dimes → 25 + 4×10 = 65 cents
8 < 65 → So write <

---

Row 2:

Left: 1 quarter + 2 nickels → 25 + 2×5 = 35 cents
Right: 1 quarter + 1 dime + 1 nickel → 25 + 10 + 5 = 40 cents
35 < 40 → So write <

Wait — let me double-check:

Left: quarter (25) + two nickels (5+5=10) → 35 ✔️
Right: quarter (25) + dime (10) + nickel (5) → 40 ✔️
Yes, 35 < 40 → <

---

Row 3:

Left: 2 quarters + 2 nickels → 2×25 + 2×5 = 50 + 10 = 60 cents
Right: 2 dimes + 2 nickels → 2×10 + 2×5 = 20 + 10 = 30 cents
60 > 30 → So write >

---

Row 4:

Left: 2 dimes + 2 nickels → 2×10 + 2×5 = 20 + 10 = 30 cents
Right: 2 dimes + 2 nickels → same as left → 30 cents
30 = 30 → So write =

---

Row 5:

Left: 2 quarters + 2 nickels → 50 + 10 = 60 cents
Right: 2 quarters + 2 nickels → also 60 cents
60 = 60 → So write =

Wait — let’s check again:

Left: two quarters (25+25=50), two nickels (5+5=10) → 60 ✔️
Right: same → 60 ✔️
So yes, =

---

Row 6:

Left: 1 quarter + 2 nickels → 25 + 10 = 35 cents
Right: 2 quarters + 2 nickels → 50 + 10 = 60 cents
35 < 60 → So write <
