Use the symbols >, =, and < to compare quantities and numerals to 100.

In this lesson, students practice comparing numbers using the symbols >, =, and <. They compare numbers such as 65 and 75, as well as numbers in various unit form combinations such as 7 tens 5 ones, 5 ones 7 tens, and 6 tens 15 ones. Through these explorations, students consider ways that each number can be decomposed and recomposed.
