2. Ratio - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ratio

   The ratio of width to height of standard-definition television. In mathematics, a ratio (/ ˈ r eɪ ʃ (i) oʊ /) shows how many times one number contains another. For example, if there are eight oranges and six lemons in a bowl of fruit, then the ratio of oranges to lemons is eight to six (that is, 8:6, which is equivalent to the ratio 4:3).

3. Proportion (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

   A proportion is a mathematical statement expressing equality of two ratios. [1] [2]: =: a and d are called extremes, b and c are called means. Proportion can be written as =, where ratios are expressed as fractions.

4. Proportionality (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

   In mathematics, two sequences of numbers, often experimental data, are proportional or directly proportional if their corresponding elements have a constant ratio. The ratio is called coefficient of proportionality (or proportionality constant) and its reciprocal is known as constant of normalization (or normalizing constant).

5. Relative change - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_change

   A percentage change is a way to express a change in a variable. It represents the relative change between the old value and the new one. [6]For example, if a house is worth $100,000 today and the year after its value goes up to $110,000, the percentage change of its value can be expressed as = = %.

6. Silver ratio - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silver_ratio

   The silver ratio is a Pisot number, [5] the next quadratic Pisot number after the golden ratio. By definition of these numbers, the absolute value 2 − 1 {\displaystyle {\sqrt {2}}-1} of the algebraic conjugate is smaller than 1, thus powers of ⁠ σ {\displaystyle \sigma } ⁠ generate almost integers and the sequence σ n mod 1 ...

7. Cross-multiplication - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-multiplication

   In mathematics, specifically in elementary arithmetic and elementary algebra, given an equation between two fractions or rational expressions, one can cross-multiply to simplify the equation or determine the value of a variable.
