Using all numbers and all letters except I and O; the smallest base where 1 / 2 terminates and all of 1 / 2 to 1 / 18 have periods of 4 or shorter. 35 Covers the ten decimal digits and all letters of the English alphabet, apart from not distinguishing 0 from O.
Every terminating decimal representation can be written as a decimal fraction, a fraction whose denominator is a power of 10 (e.g. 1.585 = 1585 / 1000 ); it may also be written as a ratio of the form k / 2 n ·5 m (e.g. 1.585 = 317 / 2 3 ·5 2 ).
A unit fraction is a common fraction with a numerator of 1 (e.g., 1 / 7 ). Unit fractions can also be expressed using negative exponents, as in 2 −1, which represents 1/2, and 2 −2, which represents 1/(2 2) or 1/4. A dyadic fraction is a common fraction in which the denominator is a power of two, e.g. 1 / 8 = 1 / 2 3 .
Problems 1–7, 7B and 8–40 are concerned with arithmetic and elementary algebra. Problems 1–6 compute divisions of a certain number of loaves of bread by 10 men and record the outcome in unit fractions. Problems 7–20 show how to multiply the expressions 1 + 1/2 + 1/4 = 7/4, and 1 + 2/3 + 1/3 = 2 by different fractions.

The Rhind Mathematical Papyrus. An Egyptian fraction is a finite sum of distinct unit fractions, such as + +. That is, each fraction in the expression has a numerator equal to 1 and a denominator that is a positive integer, and all the denominators differ from each other.
This table of bases gives the values of 0 to 1296 in bases 2 to 36, using A−Z for 10−35. "Base" (or "radix") is a term used in discussions of numeral systems which use place-value notation for representing numbers .
