Ensure that you fully understand the terminology in this quiz as it will really help in your Math lessons at school.

4 comes after 3 on the number line, so 4 ¡Ý 3
|
6 comes after 5 on the number line, so 5 ¡Ü 6

2 comes before 4 which comes before 6: the numbers MUST be in the correct order of size (magnitude) for this to work. In the first choice, 2 ¡Ü 4 BUT 4 IS NOT ¡Ü 3
|
8 comes after 5 which comes after 3: the numbers MUST be in the correct order of size (magnitude) for this to work. In the fourth choice, 8 ¡Ý 7 BUT 7 IS NOT ¡Ý 9

The shortest length cannot be known, but the longest length can be up to 3 m: this is what ¡Ü 3 means. Practically speaking, it is hardly likely to be 0 m because that would mean there is no rope. It couldn't have a negative length either!

For this to be true, you would have to write: 7 ¡Ý 7 seven is greater than 7 or seven equals seven OR 7 ¡Ü 7 seven is less than 7 or seven equals seven. The > and < symbols DO NOT allow you to put the numbers equal to each other - DON'T forget this

Farmer Jones's farm could be any size from 100 acres upwards. Farmer Giles's farm could be any size bigger than 100 acres - so farmer Jones' farm could be the smallest if it is exactly 100 acres large: the ¡Ý symbol allows this possibility BUT the > symbol does not

Here's how you solve problems like this: add both numbers together THEN divide by two: (1,260 + 2,840) = 4,100. So, 4,100 ¡Â 2 = 2,050

As you move from zero to the left along the number line, the values of the numbers are negative and they get less and less: so -26 < -25 because it is more to the left than -25
