The mathematical answer is that numbers can be compared valuatively (such as by finding a difference or a common denominator), or evaluatively, in terms of how the numbers correspond to a common equation. A more elementary answer is that numbers can be compared either in quantity or quality. Quality is a subjective sense, of what we perceive or personally understand about a number. Quantity is more objective, and relates to it's actual value, which we may not be able to directly perceive, at least not perfectly.
