    Arthur Eddington argued that the fine-structure constant was a unit fraction. He initially thought it to be 1/136 and later changed his theory to 1/137. This contention has been falsified, given that current estimates of the fine structure constant are (to 6 significant digits) 1/137.036. [30]

  4. Fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraction

    A unit fraction is a common fraction with a numerator of 1 (e.g., ⁠ 1 / 7 ⁠). Unit fractions can also be expressed using negative exponents, as in 21, which represents 1/2, and 22, 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 ⁠.

    Problems 17, 7B and 8–40 are concerned with arithmetic and elementary algebra. Problems 16 compute divisions of a certain number of loaves of bread by 10 men and record the outcome in unit fractions. Problems 7–20 show how to multiply the expressions 1 + 1/2 + 1/4 = 7/4, and 1 + 2/3 + 1/3 = 2 by different fractions.

    To help compare different orders of magnitude, this section lists some items with lengths between 106 and 105 m (between 1 and 10 micrometers, or μm). ~0.7–300 μm – wavelength of infrared radiation; 1 μm – the side of a square of area 10 −12 m 2; 1 μm – edge of cube of volume 10 −18 m 3 (1 fL)
