2. Fraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraction

   In general, a common fraction is said to be a proper fraction if the absolute value of the fraction is strictly less than one—that is, if the fraction is greater than −1 and less than 1. [14] [15] It is said to be an improper fraction, or sometimes top-heavy fraction, [16] if the absolute value of the fraction is greater than or equal to 1 ...

3. Partial fraction decomposition - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partial_fraction_decomposition

   In algebra, the partial fraction decomposition or partial fraction expansion of a rational fraction (that is, a fraction such that the numerator and the denominator are both polynomials) is an operation that consists of expressing the fraction as a sum of a polynomial (possibly zero) and one or several fractions with a simpler denominator. [1]

4. Algebraic fraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_fraction

   A complex fraction is a fraction whose numerator or denominator, or both, contains a fraction. A simple fraction contains no fraction either in its numerator or its denominator. A fraction is in lowest terms if the only factor common to the numerator and the denominator is 1. An expression which is not in fractional form is an integral ...

5. Unit fraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_fraction

   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, ...

6. Improper integral - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Improper_integral

   An improper Riemann integral of the first kind, where the region in the plane implied by the integral is infinite in extent horizontally. The area of such a region, which the integral represents, may be finite (as here) or infinite. An improper Riemann integral of the second kind, where the implied region is infinite vertically.

7. High-level radioactive waste management - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-level_radioactive...

   Since the fraction of a radioisotope's atoms decaying per unit of time is inversely proportional to its half-life, the relative radioactivity of a quantity of buried human radioactive waste would diminish over time compared to natural radioisotopes; such as the decay chains of 120 million megatonnes (260 quadrillion pounds) of thorium and 40 ...
