I always seem to struggle with comparison-type questions. I often get overwhelmed by the numbers and don't know where to start.
The comparison questions include: 'Which one of these is the greatest?' or 'Which one is the median?' etc. What I find even more challenging is that they are not just limited to fractions but also include exponents and roots.
Is there a cheat sheet on how to handle questions like these?
Thanks in advance!

[*]Simplify: Convert fractions, roots, and exponents into a comparable form (like decimals).
[*]Estimate: For roots and exponents, estimate their values.
[*]Use Exponent Rules: Compare exponents directly if bases are the same.
[*]Eliminate: Rule out obvious incorrect answers.

My suggestion would be to pause for a minute. Usually these questions have a list of 5 options and there is a logical order/process to finding and comparing. These will usually take less than a minute. I would start by practicing how to spot the solution and approach - usually it is not just raw division or factoring out.
If you have any specific questions, we can dive in and find some shortcuts for ya.
