23.67>23.42

Explanation:

imagine the > or < is an alligator

the alligator wants to eat the bigger number

23.67 is bigger than 23.42

so the alligator wants to eat 23.67

the number before the decimal might be the same but look at the number after the decimal

0.67 and 0.42

0.67 is bigger than 0.42
