2. Mediant (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

   However, if the fraction 1/1 is replaced by the fraction 2/2, which is an equivalent fraction denoting the same rational number 1, the mediant of the fractions 2/2 and 1/2 is 3/4. For a stronger connection to rational numbers the fractions may be required to be reduced to lowest terms, thereby selecting unique representatives from the ...

3. Mathematics education in the United States - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics_education_in...

   A typical sequence of secondary-school (grades 6 to 12) courses in mathematics reads: Pre-Algebra (7th or 8th grade), Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II, Pre-calculus, and Calculus or Statistics. However, some students enroll in integrated programs [3] while many complete high school without passing Calculus or Statistics.

4. Fraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraction

   Unit fractions can also be expressed using negative exponents, as in 2 −1, which represents 1/2, and 2 −2, which represents 1/(2 2) or 1/4. A dyadic fraction is a common fraction in which the denominator is a power of two , e.g. ⁠ 1 / 8 ⁠ = ⁠ 1 / 2 3 ⁠ .

   [2] [3] Historically, the concept of a proof and its associated mathematical rigour first appeared in Greek mathematics , most notably in Euclid 's Elements . [ 4 ] Since its beginning, mathematics was primarily divided into geometry and arithmetic (the manipulation of natural numbers and fractions ), until the 16th and 17th centuries, when ...

6. Knot theory - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knot_theory

   An example is 1*2 −3 2. The 1* denotes the only 1-vertex basic polyhedron. The 2 −3 2 is a sequence describing the continued fraction associated to a rational tangle. One inserts this tangle at the vertex of the basic polyhedron 1*. A more complicated example is 8*3.1.2 0.1.1.1.1.1 Here again 8* refers to a basic polyhedron with 8 vertices.

7. Educational stage - Wikipedia

   Dismantling the age-old 10+2 concept, the policy pitches for a "5+3+3+4" design corresponding to the age groups 3–8 years (foundational stage), 8–11 (preparatory), 11–14 (middle), and 14–18 (secondary). This brings early childhood education (also known as pre-school education for children of ages 3 to 5) under the umbrella of formal ...
