Comparing Numbers - 4 Digits Greater less equal - Academy Worksheets - Free Printable

Let’s go through each pair of numbers step by step.

We need to compare two numbers and decide if the first is:
- Greater than (>) — meaning it’s bigger
- Equal to (=) — meaning they’re the same
- Less than (<) — meaning it’s smaller

Remember: The “alligator mouth” opens toward the bigger number!

Row 1:
- 2170 vs 3081 → 2170 is less than 3081 → <
- 8321 vs 7999 → 8321 is greater than 7999 → >

Row 2:
- 999 vs 1000 → 999 is less than 1000 → <
- 3915 vs 3915 → They are exactly the same → =

Row 3:
- 9012 vs 8999 → 9012 is greater than 8999 → >
- 3219 vs 3222 → Look at the last digit: 9 < 2? No, wait — actually, look from left to right: thousands are same (3), hundreds same (2), tens: 1 vs 2 → 1 < 2 → so 3219 < 3222 → <

Row 4:
- 883 vs 1210 → 883 has only 3 digits, 1210 has 4 → any 3-digit number is less than a 4-digit number → <
- 6441 vs 5941 → Thousands: 6 > 5 → so 6441 > 5941 → >

Row 5:
- 6988 vs 999 → Again, 6988 is 4 digits, 999 is 3 → 6988 > 999 → >
- 1529 vs 1610 → Thousands same (1), hundreds: 5 vs 6 → 5 < 6 → so 1529 < 1610 → <
