If you have String (not string) object, you have to convert it to integer. You used comparison operator > (greater than) on String object.

What methods and operators are available for String you can obviously check in Oracle Java docs:

https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/lang/String.html

 

How to convert string to integer:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5585779/how-do-i-convert-a-string-to-an-int-in-java

 

You should also read entire Scanner class description:

https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/util/Scanner.html

I gave you references to read. You didn't do it. I won't write so simple code for you. You won't learn anything this way. If you would read links that I gave, instantly you would notice there are special methods designed for your job, instead of nextLine()..

Reading documentation and learning what classes have what methods with what parameters is majority of programmer's time spend on project.

Built-in classes and methods you must learn (and remember!) by reading docs.

https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/overview-summary.html

java.lang , java.io, java.util, java.text, java.applet , java.math etc. etc. This is what you must read the all (at least). java.sql, java.net and java.awt won't hurt later. Print them (description of the all classes with methods), and read them in WC, metro, or bus etc. etc. in your free time. Make little test programs to check how to use methods that you just read about.
