If and else statement arent working properly. Some tip?

Question

the first if statement are giving the wrong result with else condition.
c++
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int a;
int b;

int main()

{
    cout << "insert the first.number \n";
    cin >> a;

    cout << "Insert the second number \n";
    cin >> b;

    if (a > b) {
        cout << "first number is bigger\n";
        if (a < b) {
            cout << "second number is bigger";
        }
    }
    else {
            cout << "the numbers are equal";
        }
system("pause");
return 0;
}

Here ya go. Corrected your IF-ELSE logic.

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int a;
int b;

int main()

{
cout << "Insert the first number: \n";
cin >> a;

cout << "Insert the second number: \n";
cin >> b;

if(a == b) {
cout << "The numbers are equal!\n";
} else if(a > b) {
cout << "First number is bigger!\n";
} else if(a < b) {
cout << "Second number is bigger!\n";
}

system("pause");
return 0;
}
