Comparing Whole Numbers

The video tutorial explains how to compare whole numbers using place value charts. Jenny compares the population of Montana in 2000 and 2004 by analyzing the digits in each number's place value. The tutorial demonstrates the process of comparing numbers by starting from the highest place value and moving to the right until a difference is found. It also includes a practice example with different numbers to reinforce the concept. The lesson concludes with a summary of the comparison method.
