    A vinculum can indicate a line segment where A and B are the endpoints: ¯. A vinculum can indicate the repetend of a repeating decimal value: . 1 ⁄ 7 = 0. 142857 = 0.1428571428571428571...

  3. Unit fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_fraction

    Slices of approximately 1/8 of a pizza. A unit fraction is a positive fraction with one as its numerator, 1/ n.It is the multiplicative inverse (reciprocal) of the denominator of the fraction, which must be a positive natural number.

  4. Fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraction

    A common, vulgar, [n 1] or simple fraction (examples: ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ and ⁠ 17 / 3 ⁠) consists of an integer numerator, displayed above a line (or before a slash like 1 ⁄ 2), and a non-zero integer denominator, displayed below (or after) that line. If these integers are positive, then the numerator represents a number of equal parts, and ...

  5. Chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chart

    A chart (sometimes known as a graph) is a graphical representation for data visualization, in which "the data is represented by symbols, such as bars in a bar chart, lines in a line chart, or slices in a pie chart". [1] A chart can represent tabular numeric data, functions or some kinds of quality structure and provides different info.

  6. Modular multiplicative inverse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modular_multiplicative_inverse

    However, the linear congruence 4x ≡ 6 (mod 10) has two solutions, namely, x = 4 and x = 9. The gcd(4, 10) = 2 and 2 does not divide 5, but does divide 6. Since gcd(3, 10) = 1 , the linear congruence 3 x ≡ 1 (mod 10) will have solutions, that is, modular multiplicative inverses of 3 modulo 10 will exist.

  7. Continued fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continued_fraction

    Note: this continued fraction's rate of convergence μ tends to 3 − √ 8 ≈ 0.1715729, hence ⁠ 1 / μ ⁠ tends to 3 + √ 8 ≈ 5.828427, whose common logarithm is 0.7655... ≈ ⁠ 13 / 17 ⁠ > ⁠ 3 / 4 ⁠. The same ⁠ 1 / μ ⁠ = 3 + √ 8 (the silver ratio squared) also is observed in the unfolded general continued fractions of ...

  8. Erdős–Straus conjecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erdős–Straus_conjecture

    However, 1 is a square mod 3 (equal to the square of both 1 and 2 mod 3), so there can be no similar identity for all values of that are congruent to 1 mod 3. More generally, as 1 is a square mod n {\displaystyle n} for all n > 1 {\displaystyle n>1} , there can be no complete covering system of modular identities for all n {\displaystyle n ...

  9. Number line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number_line

    Note the logarithmic scale markings on each of the axes, and that the log x and log y axes (where the logarithms are 0) are where x and y themselves are 1. On the number line, the distance between two points is the unit length if and only if the difference of the represented numbers equals 1. Other choices are possible.
