“Approximately” in LaTeX

In mathematics, we often use the symbol $\approx$ to indicate that two quantities are approximately equal. In LaTeX, the word “approximately” can be represented using the command \approx.

Here’s an example of using the \approx command:

$$x \approx y$$
\[x \approx y\]

This represents the statement “x is approximately equal to y”.

Note that to use the \approx command in LaTeX, you don’t need any additional packages.

It’s as simple as that!
