A quick trick that learned when dealing with digit comparison symbols (>, <, =) is that if the values are equal use the equals symbol (=). That one is a breeze, but the trick when you have a difference in value is to always point the arrow head towards the smaller value. In this section of worksheets you will first need to compute the value of each exponent and the compare the two values with the use of symbols. The following sets of worksheets will teach your students how to compare whole numbers, decimals, and fractions that contain exponents.

These worksheets explain how to convert exponents to numerical form. This is an essential skill in science, so pay attention.
