Answer:

none of the above

Explanation:

You can reverse each of the > inequalities so they use the < symbol:

814 < 273

322 < 84

Now, in each case, the number on the left should be left of the number on the right on the number line. In each case, the opposite is true, so the given expression is false.

__

From lowest to highest, the numbers in your inequalities are ...

35, 84, 93, 164, 273, 322, 814

From left to right, this is the order they appear on a number line. If they don't appear in this order in a "<" inequality, the inequality is false.
