To solve the problem, we need to compare each pair of numbers using the symbols `>`, `<`, or `=`. Let's go through each comparison step by step:
1. 147 vs. 178
- Compare the digits from left to right.
- The hundreds place is the same (1).
- In the tens place, 4 < 7.
- Therefore,
147 < 178.
2. 722 vs. 718
- Compare the digits from left to right.
- The hundreds place is the same (7).
- In the tens place, 2 > 1.
- Therefore,
722 > 718.
3. 260 vs. 260
- All digits are the same.
- Therefore,
260 = 260.
4. 335 vs. 432
- Compare the digits from left to right.
- The hundreds place: 3 < 4.
- Therefore,
335 < 432.
5. 506 vs. 801
- Compare the digits from left to right.
- The hundreds place: 5 < 8.
- Therefore,
506 < 801.
6. 607 vs. 607
- All digits are the same.
- Therefore,
607 = 607.
7. 916 vs. 961
- Compare the digits from left to right.
- The hundreds place is the same (9).
- In the tens place, 1 < 6.
- Therefore,
916 < 961.
8. 304 vs. 340
- Compare the digits from left to right.
- The hundreds place is the same (3).
- In the tens place, 0 < 4.
- Therefore,
304 < 340.
9. 812 vs. 218
- Compare the digits from left to right.
- The hundreds place: 8 > 2.
- Therefore,
812 > 218.
10. 491 vs. 419
- Compare the digits from left to right.
- The hundreds place is the same (4).
- In the tens place, 9 > 1.
- Therefore,
491 > 419.
Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{
\begin{array}{cc}
147 < 178 & 722 > 718 \\
260 = 260 & 335 < 432 \\
506 < 801 & 607 = 607 \\
916 < 961 & 304 < 340 \\
812 > 218 & 491 > 419 \\
\end{array}
}
