greater than means it will always be a larger number than said answer, like 2, meaning any number larger than two can be an answer.

greater than or equal to means it it can be larger than two, but it can also be two.

The same rules are for less than and less than or equal to.

What does proper set mean?

I don't think such a term is used in set theory. A proper subset, on the other hand, is a subset of the set, that is not equal to the set itself. The difference is comparable to the difference between "greater than" and "greater-or-equal", for real numbers.

What is the comparison operator used for not equal to in Excel?

You can use the Not function or the <> operator, which is the < and the > beside each other. To see if the values in A1 and A2 are not equal to each other, you can type: =A1<>A2 or =Not(A1=A2) In each case they will either give you TRUE if they are not equal or FALSE if they are equal, in the cell that you enter the formula into.


What is the difference between saying a real number is positive and saying a real number is nonnegative?

Saying "positive" means "greater than zero". Saying "non-negative" is a shortcut to saying "greater than or equal to zero".


What is the mathematical symbol for not less than?

If a is not less than b then a is greater than or equal to b. The symbol for "greater than or equal to " is > with a bar under it -- a combination of the equal sign (=) and the greater than sign (>). In many computer languages you can use >= with no space between for this relation.


What is one important difference between solving equations and solving inequalities?

One important difference between solving equations and solving inequalities is that when you multiply or divide by a negative number, then the direction of the inequality must be reversed, i.e. "less than" becomes "greater than", and "less than or equal to" becomes "greater than or equal to".Actually, from a purist's sense, the reversal rule also applies with equations. Its just that the reversal of "equals" is still "equals". The same goes for "not equal to".

What is difference between the arithmetic operation and relationaloperation?

Arithmetic operations include addition, subtraction, multiplication, division. Relational operations include different comparisons between numbers (or sometimes other data types). There are six relational operations: equal, not-equal, less-than, greater-than, less-than-or-equal, greater-than-or-equal. One difference, which may help you remember the difference is that if you combine two numbers with an arithmetic operation, for example an addition, you get another number. On the other hand, if you compare two numbers, for example with "greater than", you are asking a question which will be answered with "yes" or "no" - which in computer languages are often called "true" and "false" or something similar.

No. They are equal. The only difference is the addition of the "0" in the thousandth place - and it has no value.
