Answer 2

&lt; is smaller   &gt;is bigger. haha

Answer 3

say x and y are numbers:

x&lt;y

y is bigger than x

x&gt;y

x is bigger than y

think of it as the narrow side/point of the &gt;&lt; sign is the smaller number and the wide side the big number

hope that helps!

Answer 4

We&#039;re talking mathematics here, so let&#039;s be a bit more precise...numbers are not &quot;bigger&quot; or &quot;smaller&quot; than one another...the symbols mean &quot;greater than&quot; or &quot;less than&quot;.

&lt; means less than, and &gt; means greater than, for example 2&lt;5 means two is less than five.

Answer 5

&gt; means greater than and &lt; means smaller than...

eg. 5 &gt; 3 and 3 &lt; 5
