ADDITION Comparing Numbers

Ordering Six Digit Numbers

Numbers have an order or arrangement. The number two is between oneand three. Three or more numbers can be placed in order. A number maycome before the other numbers or it may come between them or after them.

Example: If we start with the numbers 4 and 8, the number 5 would comebetween them, the number 9 would come after them and the number 2would come before both of them.

The order may be ascending (getting larger in value) or descending(becoming smaller in value).
