An inequality is a mathematical relation which compares the values of two different entities.

The various symbols used in expressing inequalities are

  • a>b    means a is greater than b
  • b<a    means b is less than a
  • [tex]a\geq b[/tex]  means a is greater than or equal to b
  • [tex]a\leq b[/tex]  means a is less than or equal to b.
