        Who has more balls?











                  Rahul                 4 balls                   Moksh                     6 balls


         Match the balls one-to-one.



        Rahul




        Moksh



        Moksh has 2 balls more than Rahul.

        So, 6 is greater than 4.


        More means greater. We use ‘>’ sign to denote more number of objects
        and read it as ‘greater than’.





                                                                              Fact-o-meter
                                                                           ‘>’ sign is read as ‘greater
                                                                           than’.  Open  side  of  ‘>’
                                                                           has greater number.



                                        1

                            3

               5

        Here, 5 flowers are more than 3 flowers.

        So, 5 > 3 or 5 is greater than 3.

        3 flowers are more than 1 flower.

        So, 3 > 1 or 3 is greater than 1.
