Suppose I have some measurement with interferometer number 1, let's call the result A, and another measurement with interferometer number 2, let's call that one B. Suppose that always A>B (in some known, fixed coordinate system and units; the numbers can be negative). What the best way to describe this in words?

1. Interferometer #1 measures a larger distance than #2.
2. Interferometer #1 measures a higher distance than #2.
3. Interferometer #1 measures a bigger distance than #2.
4. Interferometer #1 measures more than #2.
5. Interferometer #1 measures less negative than #2.
6. Interferometer #1 measures a more positive number than #2.
7. Interferometer #1 measures a less negative number than #2.

I would like to use "a larger distance" but I find that unclear when comparing A=-5 with B=-6.
