Answer:

-3 > -15 also ➡ -15< -3

9 > -10 also ➡ -10 < 9

Step-by-step explanation:

( > ) means whatever's to the left of the sign is greater than on the arrow side to the right of the sign. The croc will only eat the bigger number, think of the open side like the crocodile's mouth.

( < ) means the opposite, and whatever's on the right side of the sign is bigger than the left, or the left number is smaller than the right side. The croc will still only eat the bigger number.

When it comes to negative numbers, the smaller the number the bigger it is, and obviously positive numbers would automatically be greater than negative numbers.
