< less than > greater than To remember which is which, look at the arrows on the number line. <-------------------------------> -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 The less than sign points to the left. That's where the lower numbers are located on the number line. The greater than sign points to the right. That's were the greater numbers are located on the number line.
