2. Fixed-point arithmetic - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixed-point_arithmetic

   A fixed-point representation of a fractional number is essentially an integer that is to be implicitly multiplied by a fixed scaling factor. For example, the value 1.23 can be stored in a variable as the integer value 1230 with implicit scaling factor of 1/1000 (meaning that the last 3 decimal digits are implicitly assumed to be a decimal fraction), and the value 1 230 000 can be represented ...

3. List of scale model sizes - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_scale_model_sizes

   Matchbox and Hot Wheels use this scale to describe their vehicles, although the actual scale of the individual models varies from 1:55 to beyond 1:100. Same as S Scale. Also called 3 ⁄ 16 in. scale. Known as 25 mm figure scale in wargaming circles. [12] 1:60.96: 5.000 mm Common scale for pre-1970s hobbyist miniature wargaming figures.

4. Fraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraction

   In decimal numbers greater than 1 (such as 3.75), the fractional part of the number is expressed by the digits to the right of the separator (with a value of 0.75 in this case). 3.75 can be written either as an improper fraction, ⁠ 375 / 100 ⁠, or as a mixed number, ⁠3 + 75 / 100 ⁠.

5. Scale (ratio) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_(ratio)

   The scale can be expressed in four ways: in words (a lexical scale), as a ratio, as a fraction and as a graphical (bar) scale. Thus on an architect's drawing one might read 'one centimeter to one meter', 1:100, 1/100, or ⁠ 1 / 100 ⁠. A bar scale would also normally appear on the drawing.

6. Scale factor (computer science) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_factor_(computer...

   A scale factor of 1 ⁄ 10 cannot be used here, because scaling 160 by 1 ⁄ 10 gives 16, which is greater than the greatest value that can be stored in this fixed-point format. However, 1 ⁄ 11 will work as a scale factor, because the maximum scaled value, 160 ⁄ 11 = 14. 54, fits within this range. Given this set:

7. Graduation (scale) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graduation_(scale)

   A ruler with two linear scales: the metric and imperial.It includes shorter minor graduations and longer major graduations. A graduation is a marking used to indicate points on a visual scale, which can be present on a container, a measuring device, or the axes of a line plot, usually one of many along a line or curve, each in the form of short line segments perpendicular to the line or curve.
