  2. There are 24 red apples and 32 green apples. Which number is larger, 24 or 32? Answer: 32 Solution: Identify the two numbers given in the problem. We have 24 red apples and 32 green apples. Compare the numbers by looking at their digits from left to right.
    Full step-by-step solution

    Step 1: Identify the two numbers given in the problem. We have 24 red apples and 32 green apples. So the numbers to compare are 24 and 32. Step 2: Compare the numbers by looking at their digits from left to right. Both numbers have two digits. First, compare the tens digit: - 24 has tens digit 2. - 32 has tens digit 3. Since 3 is greater than 2, 32 is larger than 24. Step 3: Another way to check is by subtraction. Subtract the smaller number from the larger number: 32 − 24 = 8. Since the result is positive, 32 is larger than 24. Step 4: Conclusion. Therefore, the larger number is 32.
