Mathematical symbols

Commercial minus sign

The commercial minus sign is a typographical and mathematical symbol used in commercial and financial documents in some European languages, in specific contexts. In some commercial and financial documents, especially in Germany and Scandinavia, the commercial minus sign is used to signify a negative remainder of a division operation. The symbol is also used in the margins of letters to indicate an enclosure, where the upper point is sometimes replaced with the corresponding number. The Uralic Phonetic Alphabet uses commercial minus signs to denote borrowed forms of a sound. In Finland, it is used as a symbol for a correct response (the check mark indicates an incorrect response). (Wikipedia).
