MATH: Pac-Man Eats the Bigger Number
Great way to remember which way a greater than, or less than, sign should face. Think of the sign as a Pac-Man figure, and just remember that Pac-Man will always eat the larger number.
That mnemonic makes no sense when you ask a child to draw the less than sign without any numbers.
