Putting Numbers into Perspective. A large number can be put into perspective by comparing it with another number. For example, we put the $15.2 trillion national debt (Example 12) and the $2.17 trillion the government collected in taxes (Exercise 115) by comparing these numbers to the number of U.S. citizens.
