  2. Repeating decimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repeating_decimal

    The reason is that 3 is a divisor of 9, 11 is a divisor of 99, 41 is a divisor of 99999, etc. To find the period of ⁠ 1 / p ⁠, we can check whether the prime p divides some number 999...999 in which the number of digits divides p − 1. Since the period is never greater than p − 1, we can obtain this by calculating ⁠ 10 p−1 − 1 / p ...

  3. 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 decimal (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 ⁠.

  4. Continued fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continued_fraction

    For the folded general continued fractions of both expressions, the rate convergence μ = (3 − √ 8) 2 = 17 − √ 288 ≈ 0.02943725, hence ⁠ 1 / μ ⁠ = (3 + √ 8) 2 = 17 + √ 288 ≈ 33.97056, whose common logarithm is 1.531... ≈ ⁠ 26 / 17 ⁠ > ⁠ 3 / 2 ⁠, thus adding at least three digits per two terms. This is because the ...

  5. Heaviside cover-up method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heaviside_cover-up_method

    When a partial fraction term has a single (i.e. unrepeated) binomial in the denominator, the numerator is a residue of the function defined by the input fraction. We calculate each respective numerator by (1) taking the root of the denominator (i.e. the value of x that makes the denominator zero) and (2) then substituting this root into the ...

  6. Irreducible fraction - Wikipedia

    In the second step, they were divided by 3. The final result, ⁠ 4 / 3 ⁠, is an irreducible fraction because 4 and 3 have no common factors other than 1. The original fraction could have also been reduced in a single step by using the greatest common divisor of 90 and 120, which is 30. As 120 ÷ 30 = 4, and 90 ÷ 30 = 3, one gets

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Calculator

    A simple arithmetic calculator was first included with Windows 1.0. [5]In Windows 3.0, a scientific mode was added, which included exponents and roots, logarithms, factorial-based functions, trigonometry (supports radian, degree and gradians angles), base conversions (2, 8, 10, 16), logic operations, statistical functions such as single variable statistics and linear regression.

  9. Algebraic fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_fraction

    A complex fraction is a fraction whose numerator or denominator, or both, contains a fraction. A simple fraction contains no fraction either in its numerator or its denominator. A fraction is in lowest terms if the only factor common to the numerator and the denominator is 1. An expression which is not in fractional form is an integral ...
