How do you notate inversions in sheet music?

In sheet music, inversions are typically notated using a slash (/) followed by the bass note of the chord. For example, if the chord is C major in root position (C-E-G), the first inversion (E-G-C) would be notated as C/E. Similarly, the second inversion (G-C-E) would be notated as C/G.
