If you have two numbers X and Y then
One method of comparison is to calculate X - Y. If the answer is positive then it tells you how much more X is compared to Y. If the answer is negative then it is how much more Y is compared to X.
If Y is not 0, then X/Y tells you how many times X is compared to Y.
