• Discussion Fanatics

    Mathematics. In an inequality, the less-than sign always points to the smaller number. Put another way, the jaws (the wider section of the symbol) always direct to the larger number.

  • Discussion Fanatics

    If you intend to refer to a measurable amount, you should say “fewer than one percent.” If you want to refer to a very small amount, but you cannot come up with an exact number, but you know it is less than one percent, you should say “less than one percent.” < is the symbol for less than.

    Also Know, what does the less than sign look like? The first thing you have to remember is that less than symbol looks like the letter L (less than symbol is <). When you see this sign, remember that < looks like L and means less than. The greater than symbol is >. Thats it!

    Moreover, how do you use the greater than sign?

    To understand which symbol to write when comparing two values, think of the hungry alligator. The alligators mouth always opens towards the larger value so that it can eat as much as possible. If the mouth opens to the left (>), such as 5 > 4, we read the statement as a greater than.

    What does ≥ mean?

    < Less Than and > Greater Than This symbol > means greater than, for example 4 > 2. ≤ These symbols mean less than or equal to and greater than or equal to and are commonly used in algebra. ≪ ≫ These symbols are less common and mean much less than, or much greater than.
