No it is not greater. Just think of decimals like real numbers. Would 62 be more than 82? So yeah, hope this helps!

No, 0.82 is greater.
Look at place values, once you line up the decimals, you will see that the 6 and 8 are in the same plce value, therefore just figure out which number is bigger, the 6 or 8? The answer is 8! So, you now know that .82 is greater than .62
