    [2] [3] [4] It is equivalent to ⁠ 1 / 400 ⁠ of a turn, [5] ⁠ 9 / 10 ⁠ of a degree, or ⁠ π / 200 ⁠ of a radian. Measuring angles in gradians (gons) is said to employ the centesimal system of angular measurement, initiated as part of metrication and decimalisation efforts.

  4. Exponentiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponentiation

    The binary number system expresses any number as a sum of powers of 2, and denotes it as a sequence of 0 and 1, separated by a binary point, where 1 indicates a power of 2 that appears in the sum; the exponent is determined by the place of this 1: the nonnegative exponents are the rank of the 1 on the left of the point (starting from 0), and ...

    As one special case, it can be used to prove that if n is a positive integer then 4 divides () if and only if n is not a power of 2. It follows from Legendre's formula that the p -adic exponential function has radius of convergence p − 1 / ( p − 1 ) {\displaystyle p^{-1/(p-1)}} .

  6. Sixth power - Wikipedia

    ) 3 and (3 2) 3, respectively) and as squares ((2 3) 2 and (3 3) 2, respectively) In arithmetic and algebra the sixth power of a number n is the result of multiplying six instances of n together. So: n 6 = n × n × n × n × n × n. Sixth powers can be formed by multiplying a number by its fifth power, multiplying the square of a number by its ...

    Therefore, neither 3 nor 4 divide v. Substituting u by w in the equation for z 3 yields −z 3 = 6w(9w 2 + 3v 2) = 18w(3w 2 + v 2) Because v and w are coprime, and because 3 does not divide v, then 18w and 3w 2 + v 2 are also coprime. Therefore, since their product is a cube, they are each the cube of smaller integers, r and s. 18w = r 3 3w 2 ...

  8. Fourth power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourth_power

    In arithmetic and algebra, the fourth power of a number n is the result of multiplying four instances of n together. So: n 4 = n × n × n × n. Fourth powers are also formed by multiplying a number by its cube.

  9. Fifth power (algebra) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fifth_power_(algebra)

    In arithmetic and algebra, the fifth power or sursolid [1] of a number n is the result of multiplying five instances of n together: n 5 = n × n × n × n × n . Fifth powers are also formed by multiplying a number by its fourth power , or the square of a number by its cube .
