Comparing Numbers Greater or Less Than Worksheet Download
This worksheet gives a six digit number and four others, and asks which of them are greater than it, or less than it. There may be one, two or three correct answers, so the number of boxes to mark has to be worked out rather than assumed. The choices are built to sit close to the target and to share leading digits, so they cannot be sorted by length or by glancing at the first digit - each comparison has to work through the places.
