A number buried inside a long sentence gets lost — the audience never notices it. A big number slide flips that: the number becomes the star of the screen, and everything else shrinks to one line of context.
The demo's ✕ sets "34%" at the same size as the rest of a long sentence. The ✓ lets "34%" fill the frame and leaves only a short caption — "Revenue growth, quarter over quarter" — below it.
Checklist: is the number the single largest element on the slide, does the caption stay to one line, is the unit next to the number unambiguous.
When to use
When there is exactly one number a talk needs remembered, pull it out of the sentence and let it own the whole slide.
