  2. Division by infinity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_by_infinity

    The hyperbola = /.As approaches ∞, approaches 0.. In mathematics, division by infinity is division where the divisor (denominator) is ∞.In ordinary arithmetic, this does not have a well-defined meaning, since ∞ is a mathematical concept that does not correspond to a specific number, and moreover, there is no nonzero real number that, when added to itself an infinite number of times ...

  3. Division (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    For example, 20 apples divide into five groups of four apples, meaning that "twenty divided by five is equal to four". This is denoted as 20 / 5 = 4 , or ⁠ 20 / 5 ⁠ = 4 . [ 2 ] In the example, 20 is the dividend, 5 is the divisor, and 4 is the quotient.

  4. Divisibility rule - Wikipedia

    26: It is divisible by 2 and by 13. [6] 156: it is divisible by 2 and by 13. Subtracting 5 times the last digit from 2 times the rest of the number gives a multiple of 26. (Works because 52 is divisible by 26.) 1,248 : (124 × 2) − (8 × 5) = 208 = 26 × 8. 27: Sum the digits in blocks of three from right to left. (Works because 999 is ...

    In base 10, the last two digits of square numbers follow a repeating pattern mirrored symmetrical around multiples of 25. In the example of 24 and 26, both 1 off from 25, 24 2 = 576 and 26 2 = 676, both ending in 76. In general, (+) =. An analogous pattern applies for the last 3 digits around multiples of 250, and so on.

  6. Square root of 2 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square_root_of_2

    The square root of 2 (approximately 1.4142) is the positive real number that, when multiplied by itself or squared, equals the number 2. It may be written in mathematics as 2 {\displaystyle {\sqrt {2}}} or 2 1 / 2 {\displaystyle 2^{1/2}} .

    Hence, zero is the (global) minimum of the square function. The square x 2 of a number x is less than x (that is x 2 < x) if and only if 0 < x < 1, that is, if x belongs to the open interval (0,1). This implies that the square of an integer is never less than the original number x.

  9. Squared triangular number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squared_triangular_number

    A square whose side length is a triangular number can be partitioned into squares and half-squares whose areas add to cubes. From Gulley (2010).The n th coloured region shows n squares of dimension n by n (the rectangle is 1 evenly divided square), hence the area of the n th region is n times n × n.
