Question

I always have trouble with the greater than and less than signs! LOL Could someone pls explain it better and dumb it down for me, I get really confused and mixed up a bunch!

Answer 1

> greater than sign eats the biggest number < less than sign eats the lesser number

Answer 2

One of the best ways to memorize the greater than and less than signs is to imagine them as little alligators (or crocodiles), with the numbers on either side representing a number of fish. The alligator always wants to eat the larger number of fish, so whatever number the mouth is open toward is the larger number

Hope this helps!!
