How are relative dating and absolute dating different? Relative dating gives the order in which a rock layer formed compared to those around it by using layering and fossils, while absolute dating can give the age in years by using half-lives of radioisotopes.

Relative dating can give the age in years by using fossils and layering order, while absolute dating can only tell whether one rock layer came before
