By engaging in this comparison exercise, students build confidence in their ability to assess and compare large numbers accurately.

This worksheet teaches students the essential skill of comparing large numbers by focusing on the significance of each digit’s place value. Students learn to identify which number is greater, smaller, or equal by analyzing the numbers systematically, starting from the leftmost digit. The exercise helps solidify the concept that the position of a digit within a number determines its value, which is crucial for making accurate comparisons. Through this practice, students improve their number sense and become more proficient in understanding and working with large numbers, a skill that is fundamental in many areas of mathematics.
