    Numbers from 1 to 9999 and their corresponding total stopping time Histogram of total stopping times for the numbers 1 to 10 8. Total stopping time is on the x axis, frequency on the y axis. Histogram of total stopping times for the numbers 1 to 10 9. Total stopping time is on the x axis, frequency on the y axis. Iteration time for inputs of 2 ...

  3. Divisibility rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divisibility_rule

    To test for divisibility by D, where D ends in 1, 3, 7, or 9, the following method can be used. [12] Find any multiple of D ending in 9. (If D ends respectively in 1, 3, 7, or 9, then multiply by 9, 3, 7, or 1.) Then add 1 and divide by 10, denoting the result as m. Then a number N = 10t + q is divisible by D if and only if mq + t is divisible ...

    [1]: 7 For example, if 20 apples are divided evenly between 4 people, everyone receives 5 apples (see picture). However, this number of times or the number contained (divisor) need not be integers. The division with remainder or Euclidean division of two natural numbers provides an integer quotient, which is the number of times the second ...

    The black numbers are the addends, the green number is the carry, and the blue number is the sum. In the rightmost digit, the addition of 9 and 7 is 16, carrying 1 into the next pair of the digit to the left, making its addition 1 + 5 + 2 = 8.

  6. Division by infinity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_by_infinity

    For example, on the extended real number line, dividing any real number by infinity yields zero, [2] while in the surreal number system, dividing 1 by the infinite number yields the infinitesimal number . [3] [4]: 12 In floating-point arithmetic, any finite number divided by is equal to positive or negative zero if the numerator is finite.

  7. Wilson's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wilson's_theorem

    For each of the values of n from 2 to 30, the following table shows the number (n − 1)! and the remainder when (n − 1)! is divided by n. (In the notation of modular arithmetic , the remainder when m is divided by n is written m mod n .)

  8. Repeating decimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repeating_decimal

    The reason is that 3 is a divisor of 9, 11 is a divisor of 99, 41 is a divisor of 99999, etc. To find the period of ⁠ 1 / p ⁠, we can check whether the prime p divides some number 999...999 in which the number of digits divides p − 1. Since the period is never greater than p − 1, we can obtain this by calculating ⁠ 10 p−11 / p ...

    If this number is truncated to 4 decimal places, the result is 3.141. Rounding is a similar process in which the last preserved digit is increased by one if the next digit is 5 or greater but remains the same if the next digit is less than 5, so that the rounded number is the best approximation of a given precision for the original number.
