Assume that a=10 and b= 24
Now lets compare with c^2=676
Its equal, so its right triangle.
If the 432 thousandths and 396 thousandths got compared first, it would sound like the 87.421 should be greater, but its not, the 91.396 is.
But with the thousandths place being compared here, the .421 would be greater, therefore that being called the greater number.
