Understanding Integer Comparisons

The video tutorial explains how to compare integers using a number line. It demonstrates that larger numbers are always to the right and smaller numbers to the left. The tutorial provides examples comparing positive and negative integers, illustrating the use of greater than and less than symbols. It emphasizes that the larger number is always on the right, and the smaller number is on the left, using the analogy of an alligator mouth to help visualize the comparison.
