Answer/Explanation:

Comparative adjectives are used to compare differences between the two objects. For example: larger, smaller, faster, higher. They are used in sentences where two nouns are compared, in this pattern:

Noun (subject) + verb + comparative adjective + than + noun (object).

Superlative adjectives are used to describe an object which is at the upper or lower limit of a quality. For example: the tallest, the smallest, the fastest, the highest. They are used in sentences where a subject is compared to a group of objects.

Noun (subject) + verb + the + superlative adjective + noun (object).
