Because a complex number is a two dimensional entity. The concept of less than or greater than, for ordinary numbers, is one-dimensional. It can be applied to the magnitude (absolute value) of a complex number.
Every six-digit number is greater than any five-digit number.
When that number is a factor of the greater one.
The absolute value of a complex number is the magnitude of the number, which is found from sqrt(a² + b²) for the complex number a + bi
-8
-2 & -6
The LCM of 8 and 15 is 120. If the lesser number were a factor of the greater number, the LCM would be the greater number.
No, the lesser.
The greater of two numbers is 7 more than the lesser Three times the greater number is 5 more than 4 times the lesser number Find the numbers?
-39 is greater than -259 because the futher up the negatives the greater the number, and the futher down the negatives the lesser the number. With negatives how large the number is, is opposite to positives. With negative numbers the closer to 0 the greater the number, and the futher away from 0 the lesser the number.
28 is greater as it is a whole number. 0.05 is a fraction so is lesser.
Every six-digit number is greater than any five-digit number.
The greater than sign is > and the less than sign is < To help remember which is which, think about which end of the sign is greater in size - the number at that end is the greater number (and the number at the other end number lesser number).
Although the magnitude of 12 times a complex number will be greater than 5 times the same complex number, complex numbers are not ordered in the same way that ordinary numbers are. So you cannot compare 12*(x+iy) and 5*(x+iy).
Consider this:If A can be split into AB, where B is the lesser number (factor), then it can divide in. Thus, the GCF of the 2 numbers must be the lesser number, so that is true.
When that number is a factor of the greater one.
