More Than / Less Than
What Does More Than Mean?
More than means we add to the number. The answer becomes bigger.
Example:
100 more than 900 = 1000
10 more than 45 = 55
100 more than 900 = 1000
10 more than 45 = 55
What Does Less Than Mean?
Less than means we subtract from the number. The answer becomes smaller.
Example:
100 less than 900 = 800
10 less than 45 = 35
100 less than 900 = 800
10 less than 45 = 35
