This is a "More-Less-Equal" worksheet for young children. The task is to compare the number of lightbulbs in two boxes for each row and choose the correct symbol (>, <, or =) to place in the circle between them.
I will solve this by counting the lightbulbs in each box for every row and then determining the correct relationship.
Row 1:
-
Left Box: I can count 6 lightbulbs (3 on top, 3 on bottom).
-
Right Box: I can count 3 lightbulbs.
-
Comparison: 6 is greater than 3, so the correct symbol is `>`.
Row 2:
-
Left Box: I can count 8 lightbulbs (4 on top, 4 on bottom).
-
Right Box: I can count 9 lightbulbs (4 on top, 4 in the middle, 1 on the bottom).
-
Comparison: 8 is less than 9, so the correct symbol is `<`.
Row 3:
-
Left Box: I can count 6 lightbulbs (4 on top, 2 on bottom).
-
Right Box: I can count 4 lightbulbs (2 on top, 2 on bottom).
-
Comparison: 6 is greater than 4, so the correct symbol is `>`.
Row 4:
-
Left Box: I can count 4 lightbulbs.
-
Right Box: I can count 4 lightbulbs.
-
Comparison: 4 is equal to 4, so the correct symbol is `=`.
