Just start with the left-most digit of each number, and compare corresponding digits. The first time one is greater than the other, that number is the greater.
You know that, say, 6 > 2
So, if your two numbers are something like
7836219
7832...
you can immediately see that the first is greater, no matter what follows from there on to the right.
