How to add Gmail strikethrough feature

There are plenty of styling options available in Gmail to markup the words in the mail. These styling options leave various indications to receivers to understand the words better. The styling options include fonts, colors, bold, italic and strikethrough.

Strikethrough feature is a typographical element that strikes off the selected sentence or a paragraph and the text is still readable. It is a useful typographical element that lets the users know the original paragraph with the unwanted text present in it. It is useful to find out which is not wanted but still remains in the text.

For example, this is how it looks in a paragraph:
