5.9 is bigger than 5 and smaller than 9
There are two consecutive odd numbers such that five times the smaller plus twice the greater is 25. What is the smaller number?
52 and 156.
None. If a number is smaller than 36 it cannot be greater than 89.
11
The number with the smaller absolute value (magnitude) is greater.

On a number line, the numbers start with zero and get larger as they move to the right, They are negative and get smaller as they move to the left from the zero. To find which number is greater, you can find the places of two numbers on the line and the one on the right is greater.

None. If a number is smaller than 36 it cannot be greater than 89.

The number with the smaller absolute value (magnitude) is greater.
Not if either of the numbers is between 0 and 1. 5*0.5 = 2.5 is not greater than 5 0.3*0.4 = 0.12 is smaller than both multiplicands.
No. Odd numbers can be greater than, smaller than, or equal to prime numbers.
Not always, if the smaller number is 0 or a negative number. Then their sum will be equal or less than the greater number.
No. Consider 0 and 1. Or negative numbers, whose sum produces a smaller number.
No. At most, it can be equal to the smaller number.
