As the title said, is there a symbol for, or group of symbols for, Inverse Proportionality. I know that the symbol for proportionality is ∝, but I am having difficulty finding one for inverse proportionality.

5You don't need one. If $a$ is inversely proportional to $b$, $$a∝\frac1b$$ – Rushabh Mehta Jan 03 '22 at 02:50

1@ajay The whole point of the $∝$ symbol is that the proportionality constant is left implicit. – MJD Jan 03 '22 at 03:09

Oh...I was taught to write it as follows $a ∝ \frac{k}{b}$ for some constant $k$. – Bumblebee Jan 03 '22 at 03:11
