  2. Division (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_(mathematics)

    In terms of partition, 20 / 5 means the size of each of 5 parts into which a set of size 20 is divided. For example, 20 apples divide into five groups of four apples, meaning that "twenty divided by five is equal to four". This is denoted as 20 / 5 = 4, or ⁠ 20 / 5 ⁠ = 4. [2] In the example, 20 is the dividend, 5 is the divisor, and 4 is ...

  3. Fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraction

    The reciprocal of a proper fraction is improper, and the reciprocal of an improper fraction not equal to 1 (that is, numerator and denominator are not equal) is a proper fraction. When the numerator and denominator of a fraction are equal (for example, ⁠ 7 / 7 ⁠), its value is 1, and the fraction therefore is improper. Its reciprocal is ...

  5. Arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arithmetic

    [72] Integer arithmetic is not closed under division. This means that when dividing one integer by another integer, the result is not always an integer. For instance, 7 divided by 2 is not a whole number but 3.5. [73] One way to ensure that the result is an integer is to round the result to a whole number.

  6. Long division - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_division

    If the remainder is equal to zero at any iteration, then the quotient is a -adic fraction, and is represented as a finite decimal expansion in base positional notation. Otherwise, it is still a rational number but not a b {\displaystyle b} -adic rational, and is instead represented as an infinite repeating decimal expansion in base b ...

    The natural log of 2 is 0.693147, so when you solve for t using those natural logarithms, you get t = 0.693147/r.. The actual results aren’t round numbers and are closer to 69.3, but 72 easily ...

  8. Irreducible fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irreducible_fraction

    For example, ⁠ 1 / 4 ⁠, ⁠ 5 / 6 ⁠, and ⁠ −101 / 100 ⁠ are all irreducible fractions. On the other hand, ⁠ 2 / 4 ⁠ is reducible since it is equal in value to ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠, and the numerator of ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ is less than the numerator of ⁠ 2 / 4 ⁠. A fraction that is reducible can be reduced by dividing both the numerator ...
