Question

Compare and choose the appropriate sign $43,29,52,280\square 43,29,25,280$
$A) > $
$B) < $
$C) = $
$D)$None of these

Answer 1

Hint : First, we need to know about the greater sign, lesser sign, and equal to sign. The greater than and less than symbols are mathematical signs which are used to denote an inequality between any two or more than two values or numbers.
They are mainly used to compare the given values.
The greater than and less than symbols reduce the time complexity and it makes understanding easier.

Complete step-by-step solution:
$ > $ is greater than the sign, it means that the value on the left side is greater than the value on the right side. The symbol consists of two strokes of equal length connecting at an acute angle at the right. For example; $2 > 1$where $2$is greater than $1$
$ < $ is less than the sign, it means that the value on the left side is less than the value on the right side. The symbol consists of two strokes of equal length connecting at an acute angle at the left. For example; $1 > 2$where $1$is less than $2$
Equal to is denoted by the symbol $ = $and it is used to show the equality between the two values.
Now, take the first value in the left side and right side we get, $43,43$where both the values are equal as it satisfies the equal to the condition that, $43 = 43$
Take the second values from both left and right side we get, $29,29$again it will satisfy the equal to the condition that $29 = 29$
Now take the third terms from both sides, $52,25$here as we the value $52$is greater than the value $25$because, $52 > 25$
Hence, we get the relation while comparing is $43,29,52,280 > 43,29,25,280$
Hence option $A) > $is correct.

Note: Since we get the answer in the comparison of the third terms, but even if we compare the last term, that is $280 = 280$so that all other terms are equal and only one term is greater than sign with $52 > 25$Hence in the final answer as we get the greater sign. Whenever we solve these problems remember that greater than and less than are the inequalities because both the values are not equal. And the equal sign is known as the equality of the values as both sides have the same values.
