How to write greater than or equal to(≥) symbol in LaTeX?

Mathematically, there are different inequalities symbols to represent “greater than or equal to”. However, the ≥ symbol is used in 99 percent of cases. And there is a default \geq command for this symbol.

Symbol Greater than or equal to
Type Inequalities
Package asmmath, mathabx
Command \geq, \geqslant, …,etc
Example \geq
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
  \[ a \geq b \]
  \[ p \geq q \]
\end{document}

Output :

Represent greater than or equal to symbol by latex

However, for other symbols, you need to use the amsmath and mathabx packages. For example

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsmath,mathabx}
\begin{document}
  \[ p \eqslantgtr q \]
  \[ p \geqslant q \]
  \[ p \geqq q \]
  \[ p \gtreqless q \]
\end{document}

Output :

Use amsmath and mathabx package for other type greater than or equal to symbol.

And you can use not symbol with each of the above symbols.

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsmath,mathabx}
\begin{document}
  \[ a \ngeq b \]
  \[ a \ngeqslant b \]
  \[ a \ngeqq b \]
  \[ a \gneq b \]
  \[ a \gneqq b \]
\end{document}

Output :

use amsmath and mathabx package for not greater than or equal to symbol

With the help of latex, the command of all the symbols related to greater than or equal to is explained in this tutorial. I hope, you have found the answer to your question.
