Which statement correctly explains the inequality a ≤ b?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: a is less than or equal to b

The symbol ≤ means “less than or equal to.” It combines two possibilities: a<b and a=b. Thus a may be smaller than b, or it may have exactly the same value as b; equality is included because of the bar under the less-than sign. For example, if a=3 and b=5, the inequality is true because 3<5. If a=5 and b=5, it is also true because equality is allowed. Option B states both possibilities accurately. Option A incorrectly excludes equality, option C reverses the comparison, and option D contradicts the meaning of the inclusive symbol. On a number line, the corresponding endpoint would be included, usually shown with a closed point.
