Nobody likes the <math>\approx</math> symbol. They prefer the <math>=</math> symbol or inequalities. However, this symbol is needed when working with Fibonacci numbers. For example the approximation: <math>F_n-1 + \frac{1+\sqrt{5}}{2} \approx F_n</math>, where F stands for Fibonacci number.

But there is an exact formula for Fibonacci numbers that have no <math>\approx</math> symbol.
 
[[Binet's Formula]]:
 
<math>F_n=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{5}}\left( \left( \dfrac{1+\sqrt{5}}{2}\right)^n - \left( \dfrac{1-\sqrt{5}}{2}\right)^n \right)</math>
 
 
 
This symbol can also be used to express that two numbers have the same [[order of magnitude]].
