5. Base-10 Blocks Comparison
Left side:
- One large square =
100
- Two rods =
2 × 10 = 20
- Total = 100 + 20 =
120
Right side:
- Two large squares =
2 × 100 = 200
- Four small cubes =
4 × 1 = 4
- Total = 200 + 4 =
204
Now compare: 120 ○ 204
Since 120 < 204
✔ Answer: <
---
6. Base-10 Blocks Comparison
Left side:
- Ten rods =
10 × 10 = 100
Right side:
- One large square =
100
- One rod =
10
- Total = 100 + 10 =
110
Compare: 100 ○ 110
Since 100 < 110
✔ Answer: <
---
7. 600 + 50 + 4 ○ 500 + 90 + 9
Calculate both sides:
- Left: 600 + 50 + 4 =
654
- Right: 500 + 90 + 9 =
599
Compare: 654 ○ 599
Since 654 > 599
✔ Answer: >
---
8. 300 + 60 + 7 ○ 600 + 70 + 3
Calculate both:
- Left: 300 + 60 + 7 =
367
- Right: 600 + 70 + 3 =
673
Compare: 367 ○ 673
Since 367 < 673
✔ Answer: <

9. Circle the greater number: 908 or 930
Compare the hundreds: both have
9 hundreds → equal
Compare the tens:
- 908 has
0 tens
- 930 has
3 tens
Since 0 < 3,
930 is greater
✔ Circle: 930
Explanation:
I know 930 is greater because both numbers have 9 hundreds, but 930 has 3 tens (which is 30) and 908 has 0 tens. Since 30 is more than 0, 930 is larger.

✔ Final Answers:
1. 362
> 263
2. 190
> 129
3. 442
= 442
4. 148
< 184
5.
< (120 < 204)
6.
< (100 < 110)
7.
> (654 > 599)
8.
< (367 < 673)
9.
Circle: 930
Explanation: Both numbers have 9 hundreds, but 930 has 3 tens and 908 has 0 tens. Since 3 tens (30) is more than 0 tens, 930 is greater.
