Biggest number: 20 to 50
for Kindergarten

Kindergarten : Comparing numbers :
Choose the biggest number from 20 to 50

In this topic you are asked to look at a group of four numbers and decide wich number is the biggest. There are four numbers in each group, and the numbers can be as big as 50 or as small as 20. In the first question, you have the group of numbers :

34, 43, 33, 22

Start by looking at the first digit of each number - they are 3, 4, 3 and 2. So, if numbers have the same number of digits, then the number with the biggest first digit is the biggest number. We can see that we have a number with a 4 as the first digit, the 43, and the other numbers have smaller first digits so that has to be the biggest number in the group. So the biggest number in the list has to be :

43

In another question from the topic you are asked to find the biggest number from the following group of numbers :

44, 49, 21, 45

So we use the same technique as last time and look at the first digit of each number in that list. You will see that one of them is a 2, and the others are all bigger numbers, so that 21 cannot be the biggest number.

There are three numbers in the list that start with a 4, so compare their second digit. They are 4, 9 and 5. We know that 9 is bigger than 4 or 5 so the biggest number in the list has to be :

49
