An irreducible fraction (or fraction in lowest terms, simplest form or reduced fraction) is a fraction in which the numerator and denominator are integers that have no other common divisors than 1 (and −1, when negative numbers are considered). [1]

The simplified equation is not entirely equivalent to the original. For when we substitute y = 0 and z = 0 in the last equation, both sides simplify to 0, so we get 0 = 0 , a mathematical truth. But the same substitution applied to the original equation results in x /6 + 0/0 = 1 , which is mathematically meaningless .
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 .
210 is an abundant number, [1] and Harshad number. It is the product of the first four prime numbers (2, 3, 5, and 7), and thus a primorial, [2] where it is the least common multiple of these four prime numbers. 210 is the first primorial number greater than 2 which is not adjacent to 2 primes (211 is prime, but 209 is not).
Simplification is the process of replacing a mathematical expression by an equivalent one that is simpler (usually shorter), according to a well-founded ordering. Examples include:
If this infinite continued fraction converges at all, it must converge to one of the roots of the monic polynomial x 2 + bx + c = 0. Unfortunately, this particular continued fraction does not converge to a finite number in every case. We can easily see that this is so by considering the quadratic formula and a monic polynomial with real ...
297 is an odd composite number with two prime factors. [1] 297 is the number of integer partitions of 17. [2] 297 is a decagonal number which applies the properties of triangular numbers to decagons. [3] 297 is a Kaprekar number which means that it can be rewritten as the singular sum of the digits in its square in the same order. [4]
