Lesson Overview
About this worksheet
On a number line, integers increase to the right, so a number to the right is greater and a number to the left is less. This worksheet teaches how to compare integers with the < and > symbols and how to order a set of integers.
The reference box and Section A are on page 1. The reference box shows how to compare two integers and order a set from least to greatest. Section A has six compare-and-order problems. Section B on page 2 has four word problems using temperature, depth, and elevation.
Page 3 is a complete answer key with answers for every problem. The worksheet pairs well with the Negative Numbers on a Number Line and Absolute Value worksheets.
