In mathematics education at the primary school level, chunking (sometimes also called the partial quotients method) is an elementary approach for solving simple division questions by repeated subtraction. It is also known as the hangman method with the addition of a line separating the divisor, dividend, and partial quotients. [1]
In general, a quotient = /, where Q, N, and D are integers or rational numbers, can be conceived of in either of 2 ways: Quotition: "How many parts of size D must be added to get a sum of N?" = = + + + ⏟.
Clearly any regular periodic continued fraction consists of restricted partial quotients, since none of the partial denominators can be greater than the largest of a 0 through a k+m. Historically, mathematicians studied periodic continued fractions before considering the more general concept of restricted partial quotients.
In cases where one or more of the b terms has more than two digits, the final quotient value b cannot be constructed simply by concatenating the digit pairs. Instead, each term, starting with b 1 , {\displaystyle b_{1},} should be multiplied by 100, and the next term added (or, if negative, subtracted).
Using a counting argument one can show that there exist transcendental numbers which have bounded partial quotients and hence are not Liouville numbers. Using the explicit continued fraction expansion of e, one can show that e is not a Liouville number (although the partial quotients in its continued fraction expansion are unbounded).
If you ask 10 different financial advisors, there is a 100% chance you’ll get 10 different answers. This is evidence that you have plenty of options, including two popular choices like annuities ...
The continued fraction expansion of the constant is [0; 2, 2, 2, 1, 4, 3, 5, 2, 1, 4, 2, 1, 5, 44, 1, 4, 1, 2, 4, 1, …] (sequence A014572 in the OEIS) Yann Bugeaud and Martine Queffélec showed that infinitely many partial quotients of this continued fraction are 4 or 5, and infinitely many partial quotients are greater than or equal to 50.
