Question

Which of the sign should always be there in an equation?

• A. $=$
• B. $\ne$
• C. $>$
• D. $<$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $=$

An equation is a mathematical statement that two things are equal. It consists of two expressions, one on each side of an 'equals' sign. For example $x=y$ is an equation where two expressions $x$ and $y$ are equal.

Hence, $=$ sign should always be there in an equation.
