  2. Fifth power (algebra) - Wikipedia

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

    For any integer n, the last decimal digit of n 5 is the same as the last (decimal) digit of n, i.e. ()By the Abel–Ruffini theorem, there is no general algebraic formula (formula expressed in terms of radical expressions) for the solution of polynomial equations containing a fifth power of the unknown as their highest power.

  3. Word equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word_equation

    A natural extension is to consider Boolean formulas of word equations, [4] in which also negation and disjunction is allowed. In fact, every system (and even every Boolean formula) of word equations, is equivalent to a single word equation. [4] Thus, many results on word equations generalise immediately to such systems (resp. formulas).

  4. Division (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_(mathematics)

    In terms of partition, 20 / 5 means the size of each of 5 parts into which a set of size 20 is divided. For example, 20 apples divide into five groups of four apples, meaning that "twenty divided by five is equal to four". This is denoted as 20 / 5 = 4, or ⁠ 20 / 5 ⁠ = 4. [2] In the example, 20 is the dividend, 5 is the divisor, and 4 is ...

    8 5 (Take the last digit of the number, and check if it is 0 or 5) 8 5 (If it is 5, take the remaining digits, discarding the last) 8 × 2 = 16 (Multiply the result by 2) 16 + 1 = 17 (Add 1 to the result) 85 ÷ 5 = 17 (The result is the same as the original number divided by 5)

  6. Long division - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_division

    In arithmetic, long division is a standard division algorithm suitable for dividing multi-digit Hindu-Arabic numerals (positional notation) that is simple enough to perform by hand.

  7. Division algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_algorithm

    Long division is the standard algorithm used for pen-and-paper division of multi-digit numbers expressed in decimal notation. It shifts gradually from the left to the right end of the dividend, subtracting the largest possible multiple of the divisor (at the digit level) at each stage; the multiples then become the digits of the quotient, and the final difference is then the remainder.

  8. Indeterminate form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indeterminate_form

    Indeterminate form is a mathematical expression that can obtain any value depending on circumstances. In calculus, it is usually possible to compute the limit of the sum, difference, product, quotient or power of two functions by taking the corresponding combination of the separate limits of each respective function.

  9. Partial fraction decomposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partial_fraction_decomposition

    In algebra, the partial fraction decomposition or partial fraction expansion of a rational fraction (that is, a fraction such that the numerator and the denominator are both polynomials) is an operation that consists of expressing the fraction as a sum of a polynomial (possibly zero) and one or several fractions with a simpler denominator.
