2. Fraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraction

   Aside from sequencing the learning of fractions and operations with fractions, the document provides the following definition of a fraction: "A number expressible in the form ⁄ where is a whole number and is a positive whole number. (The word fraction in these standards always refers to a non-negative number.)" [43] The document itself also ...

3. Microsoft Excel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Excel

   In the figure, the fraction 1/9000 is displayed in Excel. Although this number has a decimal representation that is an infinite string of ones, Excel displays only the leading 15 figures. In the second line, the number one is added to the fraction, and again Excel displays only 15 figures. In the third line, one is subtracted from the sum using ...

4. One half - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_half

   One half is the rational number that lies midway between 0 and 1 on the number line. Multiplication by one half is equivalent to division by two, or "halving"; conversely, division by one half is equivalent to multiplication by two, or "doubling". A square of side length one, here dissected into rectangles whose areas are successive powers of ...

5. Irreducible fraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irreducible_fraction

   An irreducible fraction (or fraction in lowest terms, simplest form or reduced fraction) is a fraction in which the numerator and denominator are integers that have no other common divisors than 1 (and −1, when negative numbers are considered). [1]

6. Number - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number

   Negative denominators are allowed, but are commonly avoided, as every rational number is equal to a fraction with positive denominator. Fractions are written as two integers, the numerator and the denominator, with a dividing bar between them. The fraction ⁠ m / n ⁠ represents m parts of a whole divided into n equal parts.

7. Number line - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number_line

   The order of the natural numbers shown on the number line. A number line is a graphical representation of a straight line that serves as spatial representation of numbers, usually graduated like a ruler with a particular origin point representing the number zero and evenly spaced marks in either direction representing integers, imagined to extend infinitely.

8. Lowest common denominator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lowest_common_denominator

   For example, the numerators of fractions with common denominators can simply be added, such that + = and that <, since each fraction has the common denominator 12. Without computing a common denominator, it is not obvious as to what 5 12 + 11 18 {\displaystyle {\frac {5}{12}}+{\frac {11}{18}}} equals, or whether 5 12 {\displaystyle {\frac {5 ...

9. Harmonic series (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

   In mathematics, the harmonic series is the infinite series formed by summing all positive unit fractions: = = + + + + +.. The first terms of the series sum to approximately ⁡ +, where is the natural logarithm and is the Euler–Mascheroni constant.
