up to 10 000
Drill

blank.
616 _____618 _____620 _____ 622
357 ______359 _____361 _____ 363
Motivation
Group yourself according to the following:

number? the least? How would you compare
their numbers?

Sina Sally at Carmy ay matalik na magkaibigan.
Tingnan ang larawan nila at ang mga lastikong natipon
nila sa loob ng anim na buwan. Sa inyong palagay sino
kaya sa kanila ang nakapagtipon ng mas maraming
lastiko. Paano mo ihahambing ang dami ng lastikong
kanilang natipon?
The symbols > for “greater than”, <
for “less than”, and = for
“equal”.

1637 is greater than 1259.

In symbol, it is written as:
1637 > 1259
5 thousand < 9 thousand 9 thousand=9 thousand
So, 5 482 < 9 649 5 hundred>3 hundred
9 649 > 5 482 So, 9 583>9 385 9 385<9 583
