larger
Exceeding in magnitude
Larger is the comparative form of large, indicating greater size, extent, or amount: We need a larger table for the party.
It often implies comparison even without stating the second term: I'll have the larger one.
Larger can describe abstract quantities: a larger share of the profits, larger implications than we first thought.
