Unicode Version 17.0
⪷
U+2AB7 "⪷" Precedes Above Almost Equal To is a mathematical symbol used in formal notation to indicate that one element both precedes another and is also approximately or almost equal to it, with the "precedes" relation placed vertically above the "almost equal to" relation. This combined glyph is part of the Supplemental Mathematical Operators block and is typically employed in advanced algebra, set theory, or logic contexts where a single symbol is needed to express a nuanced relational comparison between two values or expressions without having to write two separate statements.
