437,160 is read as four hundred thirty-seven thousand one hundred sixty and 43,716 is read as fourty-three thousand seven hundred sixteen.

The first number has hundreds of thousand and the second one only has tens of thousand. It means that the first number is greater than the second one.

Another way to know this is because of the number of figures before the decimal point. The first number has 6 figures before the decimal point and the second one only has 5.

That way, we know that 437,160 is greater than 43,716.
