HOW TO ARRANGE NUMBERS? 🤔
1
Count & Look Left

More digits means a larger number. If digit counts match, look at the leftmost place first!

725 > 689
2
Compare Next Digit

If the first digits are completely identical, move one step to the right to see which is larger.

472 > 417
3
Keep Checking

Move step-by-step to the right until you find a difference. If all match, the numbers are equal!

356 = 356
