A simple fraction (also known as a common fraction or vulgar fraction) [n 1] is a rational number written as a/b or , where a and b are both integers. [9] As with other fractions, the denominator (b) cannot be zero. Examples include 1 / 2 , − 8 / 5 , −8 / 5 , and 8 / −5 .
In the newsgroup sci.math in the 1990s, arguing over 0.999... became a "popular sport", and was one of the questions answered in its FAQ. [ 57 ] [ 58 ] The FAQ briefly covers 1 3 {\displaystyle \textstyle {\frac {1}{3}}} , multiplication by 10, and limits, and alludes to Cauchy sequences as well.
Gauge was determined from the weight of a solid sphere of lead that will fit the bore of the firearm and is expressed as the multiplicative inverse of the sphere's weight as a fraction of a pound, e.g., a one-twelfth pound lead ball fits a 12-gauge bore.
Fractional distillation is the separation of a mixture into its component parts, or fractions. Chemical compounds are separated by heating them to a temperature at which one or more fractions of the mixture will vaporize. It uses distillation to fractionate.

= fraction of the emitted exhaust gas, by volume, which is water vapor As an example, a wet basis concentration of 40 ppmv in a gas having 10 volume percent water vapor would have a: C dry basis = 40 ÷ ( 1 - 0.10 ) = 44.4 ppmv.
