If a > b, what can you say about the locations of a and b on the number line?

If A > B (A is greater than B), A will be on the right side of B, and B will be on the left side of A on a number line.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because as you keep on going right on a number line, the numbers keep getting greater. Same idea vise versa (left side gets lesser). Therefore, if A is greater than B, it will be to the right of B on a number line. Look below for an example:

step-by-step explanation:

what is the figure? attach a picture.

the 8 in 8,420 is in the thousands place so it's value is 8 thousand.

the 8 in 6,870 is in the hundreds place so it's value is 8 hundred.

divide 8000 by 800 to find the answer:

8000 / 800 = 10

the 8 in 8,420 is 10 times greater than the 8 in 6,870
