Novice in C needs help

Guys can you help me ?

I'm novice in C but I have a lot of will to master C. Each gurney starts with first step

O.K. My problem is to compare two integers entered by user

I know how to set up conditions and problem is how to print correct value (grater number)

Code:

// This program compares two integers and prints which number is 
// greatest number from given input

#include <stdio.h> 

int main(void) 
{
    int a, b;     // two integers 
    
    // Program shell ask user for input and store input in comp. memory
    
    printf("Enter two integers: ");
    scanf("%d %d", &a, &b);
    
    // Tests which is greater using if statements 
    
    if ( a > b && b < a || b > a && a < b) 
         printf("Greatest: %d\n", a);
    else
         printf("Smallest: %d\n", b);
         
         
    getchar();
    getchar();
         
    return 0;
}

I know problem is red marked area. How to correct that ?
