According to question we have: (10-3) which is equal to 7 i.e (10-3) = 7 ......eq.(1) also (1+2) is equal to 3 i.e (1+2) = 3 ......eq.(2) now from eq(1) and (2) we have 7>3 ..........(applying greater than symbol) so (10-3) > (1+2) hence, Ten minus three is greater(>) than one plus two.

Ten minus three ⇒ 10 - 3
One plus two ⇒ 1 + 2

Greater than use the symbol >

Ten minus three greater than one plus two
10 - 3 > 1 + 2
7 > 3
