About the Compare Worksheet

Compare is a focused mathematical worksheet designed to strengthen students' understanding of decimal number relationships. This interactive and printable worksheet, that aligns with the Common Core State Standards, Compare, presents nine carefully selected pairs of decimal numbers that students must compare using the less than (<), greater than (>), or equals (=) symbols. The problems range from comparing identical decimals to comparing numbers with different place values, providing a comprehensive practice of decimal comparison skills.

The worksheet features a clean, visually appealing layout with clearly presented decimal pairs and designated spaces for comparison symbols. The problems are strategically sequenced, beginning with equal numbers (0.85 = 0.85) and progressing to more challenging comparisons like .92 and 9.2. The inclusion of a playful character illustration adds visual interest while maintaining focus on the mathematical content. Students must demonstrate their understanding of place value and decimal magnitude while practicing proper use of mathematical comparison symbols.
