This document provides a math worksheet to practice comparing numbers using less than (<) and greater than (>) symbols. Students are given examples of how to use the symbols to compare numbers and told that the open mouth of the symbol points to the larger number. They are then given 10 number pairs to compare using < or > and determine which number is less than or greater than the other.
