Hey Randy,
there can be two answers for your question.
1st:
If you have 2 and 5678, you can conclude that 5678 is the greatest numbers due to the fact that is has more ten's place. The 5 is in the thousands place while the 2 is in the one's place.
2nd:
On the other hand, if you have .4 and .5656 (notice the decimal),.4 is going to be the greatest because it is closer to one, when looking at it from a nuber line.
The number with the most digits is always greatest. Do you agree? Explain.
Explain how you use a hundred chart to subtract 12 from 46.

A tip on posting here is to include the leading zero for a decimal as the . tends to get lost. So 0.4 is clearer than .4
