About comparing numbers worksheets

Each row shows two numbers and the three symbols for less than, equal to and greater than. Students circle the one that makes the statement true. Choose whole numbers to 99, 999, 9,999 or 999,999, decimals to the tenths, hundredths or thousandths, or integers with negatives.

Turn on "tricky pairs" to include numbers that look alike (4,382 and 4,328, or 0.3 and 0.25), which is where students slip. Turn on equal pairs to include statements such as 0.3 and 0.30. The solved example explains the comparison place by place. Every sheet has an answer key, and there is a large-print version.
