2. Repeating decimal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repeating_decimal

   In order to convert a rational number represented as a fraction into decimal form, one may use long division. For example, consider the rational number ⁠ 5 / 74 ⁠: 0.0 675 74 ) 5.00000 4.44 560 518 420 370 500 etc. Observe that at each step we have a remainder; the successive remainders displayed above are 56, 42, 50.

3. Single-precision floating-point format - Wikipedia

   Thus only 23 fraction bits of the significand appear in the memory format, but the total precision is 24 bits (equivalent to log 10 (2 24) ≈ 7.225 decimal digits) for normal values; subnormals have gracefully degrading precision down to 1 bit for the smallest non-zero value.

4. Decimal separator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_separator

   Any such symbol can be called a decimal mark, decimal marker, or decimal sign. Symbol-specific names are also used; decimal point and decimal comma refer to a dot (either baseline or middle ) and comma respectively, when it is used as a decimal separator; these are the usual terms used in English, [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] with the aforementioned ...

5. 12 (number) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/12_(number)

   12 (twelve) is the natural number following 11 and preceding 13.. Twelve is the 3rd superior highly composite number, [1] the 3rd colossally abundant number, [2] the 5th highly composite number, and is divisible by the numbers from 1 to 4, and 6, a large number of divisors comparatively.

6. Decimalisation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimalisation

   Decimalisation or decimalization (see spelling differences) is the conversion of a system of currency or of weights and measures to units related by powers of 10.. Most countries have decimalised their currencies, converting them from non-decimal sub-units to a decimal system, with one basic currency unit and sub-units that are valued relative to the basic unit by a power of 10, most commonly ...

7. Methods of computing square roots - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methods_of_computing...

   k is a decimal digit and R is a fraction that must be converted to decimal. It usually has only a single digit in the numerator, and one or two digits in the denominator, so the conversion to decimal can be done mentally. Example: find the square root of 75. 75 = 75 × 10 2 · 0, so a is 75 and n is 0.

8. Q (number format) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q_(number_format)

   The Q notation is a way to specify the parameters of a binary fixed point number format. For example, in Q notation, the number format denoted by Q8.8 means that the fixed point numbers in this format have 8 bits for the integer part and 8 bits for the fraction part.

9. Scientific notation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_notation

   Converting a number from scientific notation to decimal notation, first remove the × 10 n on the end, then shift the decimal separator n digits to the right (positive n) or left (negative n). The number 1.2304 × 10 6 would have its decimal separator shifted 6 digits to the right and become 1,230,400 , while −4.0321 × 10 −3 would have its ...
