I'll solve this comparison problem step by step.
Step 1: Understanding the task
- I need to compare pairs of numbers
- Use > (greater than) when the first number is larger
- Use < (less than) when the first number is smaller
Step 2: Working through each pair
Left column:
1. 3 ___ 1 → 3 is greater than 1, so use >
2. 2 ___ 5 → 2 is less than 5, so use <
3. 7 ___ 9 → 7 is less than 9, so use <
4. 3 ___ 0 → 3 is greater than 0, so use >
5. 8 ___ 2 → 8 is greater than 2, so use >
6. 4 ___ 2 → 4 is greater than 2, so use >
Right column:
1. 2 ___ 5 → 2 is less than 5, so use <
2. 4 ___ 1 → 4 is greater than 1, so use >
3. 8 ___ 2 → 8 is greater than 2, so use >
4. 3 ___ 9 → 3 is less than 9, so use <
5. 0 ___ 5 → 0 is less than 5, so use <
6. 3 ___ 6 → 3 is less than 6, so use <
Let me verify my answers:
- 3 > 1 ✓ (3 is bigger)
- 2 < 5 ✓ (2 is smaller)
- 7 < 9 ✓ (7 is smaller)
- 3 > 0 ✓ (3 is bigger)
- 8 > 2 ✓ (8 is bigger)
- 4 > 2 ✓ (4 is bigger)
- 2 < 5 ✓ (2 is smaller)
- 4 > 1 ✓ (4 is bigger)
- 8 > 2 ✓ (8 is bigger)
- 3 < 9 ✓ (3 is smaller)
- 0 < 5 ✓ (0 is smaller)
- 3 < 6 ✓ (3 is smaller)
All comparisons are correct!
Final Answer:
Left column (top to bottom): >, <, <, >, >, >
Right column (top to bottom): <, >, >, <, <,
