    A simple fraction (also known as a common fraction or vulgar fraction, where vulgar is Latin for "common") is a rational number written as a / b or ⁠ ⁠, where a and b are both integers. [9] As with other fractions, the denominator (b) cannot be zero. Examples include ⁠ 1 2 ⁠, − ⁠ 8 5 ⁠, ⁠ −8 5 ⁠, and ⁠ 8 −5 ⁠.

    Here is a typical problem of Chapter 1: "Divide 6587 2/3 and 3/4 by 58 ı/2. How much is it?" The answer is given as 112 437/702 with a detailed description of the process by which the answer is obtained. This description makes use of the Chinese rod numerals. The chapter considers several real world problems where computations with fractions ...

  4. Farey sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farey_sequence

    In mathematics, the Farey sequence of order n is the sequence of completely reduced fractions, either between 0 and 1, or without this restriction, [ a] which when in lowest terms have denominators less than or equal to n, arranged in order of increasing size. With the restricted definition, each Farey sequence starts with the value 0, denoted ...

  5. Partial fraction decomposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partial_fraction_decomposition

    In algebra, the partial fraction decomposition or partial fraction expansion of a rational fraction (that is, a fraction such that the numerator and the denominator are both polynomials) is an operation that consists of expressing the fraction as a sum of a polynomial (possibly zero) and one or several fractions with a simpler denominator. [1]

    [2] [3] Thus, in the expression 1 + 2 × 3, the multiplication is performed before addition, and the expression has the value 1 + (2 × 3) = 7, and not (1 + 2) × 3 = 9. When exponents were introduced in the 16th and 17th centuries, they were given precedence over both addition and multiplication and placed as a superscript to the right of ...

  7. Division by zero - Wikipedia

    Multiply both sides by x to get . Subtract 1 from each side to get The right side can be factored, Dividing both sides by x − 1 yields Substituting x = 1 yields. This is essentially the same fallacious computation as the previous numerical version, but the division by zero was obfuscated because we wrote 0 as x − 1.

  8. Egyptian fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egyptian_fraction

    The Rhind Mathematical Papyrus. An Egyptian fraction is a finite sum of distinct unit fractions, such as That is, each fraction in the expression has a numerator equal to 1 and a denominator that is a positive integer, and all the denominators differ from each other. The value of an expression of this type is a positive rational number ; for ...

  9. Harmonic progression (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonic_progression...

    In mathematics, a harmonic progression (or harmonic sequence) is a progression formed by taking the reciprocals of an arithmetic progression. Equivalently, a sequence is a harmonic progression when each term is the harmonic mean of the neighboring terms. As a third equivalent characterization, it is an infinite sequence of the form.
