    Solution: - Given numbers to compare are 512 and 521.

    As they are 3 digit numbers

    So, we have to compare hundreds place.

    But hundreds are equal in both the numbers with digit 5.

    Next we have to compare tens place.

    Case 1 : - 1 ten is smaller in 512 than 2 tens in 521.

    So we get the result that,

    512 is smaller than 521

    or 512 < 521

    Case 2:-2 tens is greater in 521 than 1 ten in 512.

    So we get the result that,

    521 is greater than 512

    or 521 > 512
