  2. Rhind Mathematical Papyrus 2/n table - Wikipedia

    The answers were checked by multiplying the initial divisor by the proposed solution and checking that the resulting answer was 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 + 1/16 + 1/32 + 1/64 + 5 ro, which equals 1. [ 10 ] References

  3. Collatz conjecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collatz_conjecture

    As an illustration of this, the parity cycle (1 1 0 0 1 1 0 0) and its sub-cycle (1 1 0 0) are associated to the same fraction ⁠ 5 / 7 ⁠ when reduced to lowest terms. In this context, assuming the validity of the Collatz conjecture implies that (1 0) and (0 1) are the only parity cycles generated by positive whole numbers (1 and 2 ...

  4. Multiplication table - Wikipedia

    Figure 2 is used for the multiples of 2, 4, 6, and 8. These patterns can be used to memorize the multiples of any number from 0 to 10, except 5. As you would start on the number you are multiplying, when you multiply by 0, you stay on 0 (0 is external and so the arrows have no effect on 0, otherwise 0 is used as a link to create a perpetual cycle).

  5. 6-year-old provides the most genius answer to his math problem

    At this point, most kids would have elaborated their calculations showing that each dime is worth $0.10, therefore making Bobby the owner of $0.40 while Amy's pennies amount to $0.30.

    If the answer is greater than a single digit, simply carry over the extra digit (which will be a 1 or 2) to the next operation. The remaining digit is one digit of the final result. Example: 316 × 12 {\displaystyle 316\times 12}

    In engineering notation, this is written 40 × 10 6 m. In SI writing style, this may be written 40 Mm (40 megametres). An inch is defined as exactly 25.4 mm. Using scientific notation, this value can be uniformly expressed to any desired precision, from the nearest tenth of a millimeter 2.54 × 10 1 mm to the nearest nanometer 2.540 0000 × 10 ...

    That is, for every prime number p greater than 3, one has the modular arithmetic relations that either p ≡ 1 or 5 (mod 6) (that is, 6 divides either p − 1 or p − 5); the final digit is a 1 or a 5. This is proved by contradiction.

  9. Arithmetic progression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arithmetic_progression

    For instance, the sequence 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, . . . is an arithmetic progression with a common difference of 2. If the initial term of an arithmetic progression is a 1 {\displaystyle a_{1}} and the common difference of successive members is d {\displaystyle d} , then the n {\displaystyle n} -th term of the sequence ( a n {\displaystyle a_{n ...
