The greatest number is 8 because when you measure the number between 8&3 its more than likely 8

Answer : The greater number is, 8

Step-by-step explanation :

Let us assume that both the values have the same number of digits in which one has 8 at leftmost and another has 3 at leftmost.

As we know that the number 8 is greater than the number 3.

For example :

The digits in which one has 8 at leftmost is 85 and the digits in which one has 3 at leftmost is 35. From this we conclude that, 85 is greater than 35. So, the greater number will be, 8.

Hence, the greater number is, 8
