Greater than and Less than upto 10

Learning of greater than and less than upto 10 is important for comparing the numbers.

We now understand that

2 > 1     and      1 < 2

3 > 2     and      2 < 3

4 > 3     and      3 < 4

5 > 4     and      4 < 5

6 > 5     and      5 < 6

7 > 6     and      6 < 7

8 > 7     and      7 < 8

9 > 8     and      8 < 9

10 > 9   and      9 < 10

Thus, 10 > 9 > 8 >7 > 6 > 5 > 4 > 3 > 2 > 1

So, we can say 10 is greater than 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9.

That is 10 is the greatest of the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10.

Also, 1 < 2 < 3 < 4 < 5 < 6 < 7 < 8 < 9 < 10

We see that 1 is less than 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10, that is 1 is the smallest of the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10.

Analyse the picture and identify whether the objects in one group is greater than or less than to the number of objects in another group.
