    PowerShell uses operators with a dash, like -gt for greater than, not symbols like > or =>.

  2. Step 2: Identify the correct operator for greater than

    if ($a -gt 10) { } -> Option B

    Greater than operator = -gt [OK]
Quick Trick: Use dash before comparison operators in PowerShell [OK]

  • Using > instead of -gt
  • Writing 'gt' without dash
  • Using invalid operator =>
