Comparing Numbers (to 20)

These free printable comparing numbers worksheets take kindergarten and 1st grade students beyond 10, asking which of two numbers up to 20 is greater or smaller — including the teen numbers children often find hardest to order.

How to Solve Counting & Comparing

Picture both numbers on a number line from 1 to 20 — the number further right is greater. For teen numbers, compare the tens first: any number in the teens beats any single-digit number, and between two teens the ones digits decide.
