Shells on the beachAt the beach, Mia and Ben pack shells in trays of ten. Ten trays fill a basket, and that is a hundred shells. Mia's frame shows 2 hundreds, 5 tens and 8 ones. Ben's frame shows 2 hundreds, 8 tens and 5 ones. To compare two numbers, start at the top row, the hundreds. If the hundreds match, compare the tens. If those match too, compare the ones.
