To solve these problems, we need to compare the two numbers in each row and decide which symbol fits best:
-
> means "greater than" (the first number is bigger).
-
< means "less than" (the first number is smaller).
-
= means "equal to" (the numbers are exactly the same).
Here is the step-by-step check for each problem:
1)
3.3 vs 0.33: Look at the ones place. 3 is bigger than 0. So, 3.3 > 0.33.
2)
4.96 vs 0.496: Look at the ones place. 4 is bigger than 0. So, 4.96 > 0.496.
3)
7.31 vs 7.31: The numbers are identical. So, 7.31 = 7.31.
4)
6.72 vs 6.69: The ones are the same (6). Look at the tenths: 7 is bigger than 6. So, 6.72 > 6.69.
5)
9.06 vs 9.01: The ones and tenths are the same. Look at the hundredths: 6 is bigger than 1. So, 9.06 > 9.01.
6)
4.28 vs 4.32: The ones are the same. Look at the tenths: 2 is smaller than 3. So, 4.28 < 4.32.
7)
5.26 vs 5.25: The ones and tenths are the same. Look at the hundredths: 6 is bigger than 5. So, 5.26 > 5.25.
8)
9.05 vs 9.1: To make it easier, think of 9.1 as 9.10. Now compare 9.05 and 9.10. Since 05 is smaller than 10, 9.05 < 9.1.
9)
7.76 vs 7.79: The ones and tenths are the same. Look at the hundredths: 6 is smaller than 9. So, 7.76 < 7.79.
10)
2.53 vs 0.253: Look at the ones place. 2 is bigger than 0. So, 2.53 > 0.253.
11)
9.42 vs 0.942: Look at the ones place. 9 is bigger than 0. So, 9.42 > 0.942.
12)
8.83 vs 8.84: The ones and tenths are the same. Look at the hundredths: 3 is smaller than 4. So, 8.83 < 8.84.
13)
7.11 vs 7.18: The ones and tenths are the same. Look at the hundredths: 1 is smaller than 8. So, 7.11 < 7.18.
14)
5.14 vs 0.514: Look at the ones place. 5 is bigger than 0. So, 5.14 > 0.514.
15)
9.35 vs 9.36: The ones and tenths are the same. Look at the hundredths: 5 is smaller than 6. So, 9.35 < 9.36.
16)
0.72 vs 0.072: Look at the tenths place. 7 is bigger than 0. So, 0.72 > 0.072.
17)
6.21 vs 0.621: Look at the ones place. 6 is bigger than 0. So, 6.21 > 0.621.
18)
1.19 vs 1.21: The ones are the same. Look at the tenths: 1 is smaller than 2. So, 1.19 < 1.21.
19)
9.39 vs 9.38: The ones and tenths are the same. Look at the hundredths: 9 is bigger than 8. So, 9.39 > 9.38.
20)
6.83 vs 0.683: Look at the ones place. 6 is bigger than 0. So, 6.83 > 0.683.
