when you multiply both by 1000 (or move the decimal point 3 spots to the right)

Answer 3

does that help?

Answer 4

Thanks, that does help. I'll give you a medal, could you please give me one back?

Answer 5

uh sure, don't really understand the whole medal system, but I guess it doesn't hurt to give you one back

Answer 6

to be clear, the more negative a number is, the smaller it is.
-10 is smaller than -1. Think temperature if that helps -10 is colder (lower temperature ) than -1

In your case -6.430 is more negative than -6.043
In other words, -6.043 is larger

so you did this correctly.
