In KS2 Maths, Year 4 kids learn to compare and order numbers. This means putting numbers in order, even tricky ones like negative or decimal numbers. We use symbols like > (greater than), < (smaller than), and = (equal to). This quiz, for 8-9 year olds, helps practice these skills.
Comparing numbers is like figuring out their size. Easy with 1 to 100, but what about decimals and negatives? Is 0.7 bigger than 0.07? What about big numbers like 9,973 and 9,987 - which is bigger? If you know your ones, tens, hundreds, and thousands, along with tenths, hundredths, and thousandths, you can solve these puzzles!

4,651 and 4,615 both have 4 thousands and 6 hundreds but 4,651 has 5 tens while 4,615 only has 1

9,421 and 9,412 both have 9 thousands and 4 hundreds but 9,421 has 2 tens while 9,412 only has 1
