To put in perspective the size of a googol, the mass of an electron, just under 10 −30 kg, can be compared to the mass of the visible universe, estimated at between 10 50 and 10 60 kg. [5] It is a ratio in the order of about 10 80 to 10 90 , or at most one ten-billionth of a googol (0.00000001% of a googol).
Numerative form is цент for 1 cent (as well as amounts that end in 1 except for the ones ending in 11 – e.g. 51 цент but 11 центів), центи for 2 to 4 cents (as well as any other amounts ending in 2, 3 or 4, except for the ones ending in 12, 13, 14 – e.g. 54 центи but 12 центів) and центів for the rest ...
When the numerator and the denominator are both positive, the fraction is called proper if the numerator is less than the denominator, and improper otherwise. [11] The concept of an improper fraction is a late development, with the terminology deriving from the fact that fraction means piece, so a proper fraction must be less than 1. [10]
Thus if expressed as a fraction with a numerator of 1, probability and odds differ by exactly 1 in the denominator: a probability of 1 in 100 (1/100 = 1%) is the same as odds of 1 to 99 (1/99 = 0.0101... = 0. 01), while odds of 1 to 100 (1/100 = 0.01) is the same as a probability of 1 in 101 (1/101 = 0.00990099... = 0. 0099). This is a minor ...
The euro was implemented on 1 January 1999, when it became the currency of over 300 million people in Europe. [12] For the first three years of its existence it was an invisible currency, only used in accountancy. euro cash was not introduced until 1 January 2002, when it replaced the national banknotes and coins of the countries in eurozone 12, such as the French franc and the Spanish peseta.
For example, if a report says there has been a "1% increase" from a 10% interest rate, this could refer to an increase either from 10% to 10.1% (relative, 1% of 10%), or from 10% to 11% (absolute, 1% plus 10%). However, if the report says there has been a "100 basis point increase" from a 10% interest rate, then the interest rate of 10% has ...
Year 100 was a leap year starting on Wednesday of the Julian calendar. The denomination 100 for this year has been used since the early medieval period.
It is unknown whether these constants are transcendental in general, but Γ( 1 / 3 ) and Γ( 1 / 4 ) were shown to be transcendental by G. V. Chudnovsky. Γ( 1 / 4 ) / 4 √ π has also long been known to be transcendental, and Yuri Nesterenko proved in 1996 that Γ( 1 / 4 ), π, and e π are algebraically independent.
