- Use symbols: < (less than), = (equal to), > (greater than)
- When comparing mixed units, convert everything to the same unit
Adding and Subtracting Lengths
- Add or subtract like units: metres with metres, centimetres with centimetres
- Convert the result if it exceeds the unit limit (e.g., 115 cm = 1 m 15 cm)
