Find the Missing Sign in 40+1□47-7: Comparison Operation Practice

Choose the correct sign:

$40+1\Box47-7$

To solve this problem, we need to evaluate each of the given expressions and compare the resulting values.

Step 1: Calculate $40 + 1$.

• $40 + 1 = 41$

Step 2: Calculate $47 - 7$.

• $47 - 7 = 40$

Step 3: Compare the results from the calculations in Step 1 and Step 2.

We have $41$ from the first expression and $40$ from the second expression. Clearly, $41 > 40$.

Thus, when comparing $40 + 1$ to $47 - 7$, we have:

$40 + 1 > 47 - 7$

Therefore, the correct choice is $>$.
