Observe the tenths place
As a negative number .9 is further from 0 than .2;
in other words, .9 is more negative than .2, which makes it less than .2.
Therefore,
-4.219 > -4.921
...
which makes sense on a number line
----------------*--------------------*----------------*
------------ -4.921 -------------- -4.219 ------------0
----------- -5 ------------------------- -4 -------------0
...
confirm by rounding
-4.219 rounds to -4
-4.921 rounds to -5
-5 is more negative than -4, it is less than -4
-5 < -4
