  2. Division (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    Sometimes this remainder is added to the quotient as a fractional part, so 10 / 3 is equal to ⁠3 + 1 / 3 ⁠ or 3.33..., but in the context of integer division, where numbers have no fractional part, the remainder is kept separately (or exceptionally, discarded or rounded). [5] When the remainder is kept as a fraction, it leads to a rational ...

  3. Milliradian - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milliradian

    A common adjustment value in firearm sights is 1 cm at 100 meters which equals10 mm / 100 m ⁠ = ⁠ 1 / 10 ⁠ mrad. The true definition of a milliradian is based on a unit circle with a radius of one and an arc divided into 1,000 mrad per radian, hence 2,000 π or approximately 6,283.185 milliradians in one turn , and rifle scope ...

  4. Percentage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percentage

    Thus, in the above example, after an increase and decrease of x = 10 percent, the final amount, $198, was 10% of 10%, or 1%, less than the initial amount of $200. The net change is the same for a decrease of x percent, followed by an increase of x percent; the final amount is p (1 - 0.01 x )(1 + 0.01 x ) = p (1 − (0.01 x ) 2 ) .

  5. Fixation index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixation_index

    Fst values between European populations. The fixation index (F ST) is a measure of population differentiation due to genetic structure.It is frequently estimated from genetic polymorphism data, such as single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) or microsatellites.

  6. Brix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brix

    Degrees Brix (symbol °Bx) is a measure of the dissolved solids in a liquid, based on its specific gravity, and is commonly used to measure dissolved sugar content of a solution. [1] One degree Brix is 1 gram of sucrose in 100 grams of solution and represents the strength of the solution as percentage by mass. If the solution contains dissolved ...

  7. Scientific notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_notation

    Any real number can be written in the form m × 10 ^ n in many ways: for example, 350 can be written as 3.5 × 10 2 or 35 × 10 1 or 350 × 10 0. In normalized scientific notation (called "standard form" in the United Kingdom), the exponent n is chosen so that the absolute value of m remains at least one but less than ten ( 1 ≤ | m | < 10 ).

  8. Duodecimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duodecimal

    1 / 10 ⁠ = 0.1 (this is one twelfth, ⁠ 1 / A ⁠ is one tenth) ⁠ 1 / 14 ⁠ = 0.09 (this is one sixteenth, ⁠ 1 / 12 ⁠ is one fourteenth) while other rational numbers have recurring duodecimal fractions: ⁠ 1 / 5 ⁠ = 0. 2497 ⁠ 1 / 7 ⁠ = 0. 186A35 ⁠ 1 / A ⁠ = 0.1 2497 (one tenth) ⁠ 1 / B ⁠ = 0. 1 (one eleventh) ⁠ 1 ...

  9. Sediment transport - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sediment_transport

    In 2002, Peter Wilcock and T. A. Kenworthy, following Peter Wilcock (1998), [32] published a sediment bed-load transport formula that works with only two sediments fractions, i.e. sand and gravel fractions. [33] A mixed-sized sediment bed-load transport model using only two fractions offers practical advantages in terms of both computational ...
