Compare the Christmas Stockings - a fun math activity for kids to practice number comparison using festive stockings.

Let’s go through each pair of numbers and decide which symbol goes in the box:
> > means “greater than” (the bigger number is on the left)
> < means “less than” (the smaller number is on the left)
> = means “equal to” (both numbers are the same)

We’ll compare them one by one:

---

Row 1:
- Left: 2, Right: 12 → 2 is less than 12 → <
- Left: 11, Right: 20 → 11 is less than 20 → <

Row 2:
- Left: 14, Right: 9 → 14 is greater than 9 → >
- Left: 23, Right: 13 → 23 is greater than 13 → >

Row 3:
- Left: 54, Right: 54 → They’re equal → =
- Left: 16, Right: 36 → 16 is less than 36 → <

Row 4:
- Left: 40, Right: 39 → 40 is greater than 39 → >
- Left: 26, Right: 29 → 26 is less than 29 → <

Row 5:
- Left: 17, Right: 71 → 17 is less than 71 → <
- Left: 19, Right: 90 → 19 is less than 90 → <

Now let’s write all the answers in order, top to bottom, left to right as they appear in the worksheet.

Final Answer:
< < > > = < > < <
