A fraction that is reducible can be reduced by dividing both the numerator and denominator by a common factor. It can be fully reduced to lowest terms if both are divided by their greatest common divisor. [5] In order to find the greatest common divisor, the Euclidean algorithm or prime factorization can be used. The Euclidean algorithm is ...

A ratio is often converted to a fraction when it is expressed as a ratio to the whole. In the above example, the ratio of yellow cars to all the cars on the lot is 4:12 or 1:3. We can convert these ratios to a fraction, and say that 4 / 12 of the cars or 1 / 3 of the cars in the lot are yellow.
The number of cycles it takes to close a spirolateral, n θ, with k opposite turns can be computed like so. Define p and q such that p/q=360/(180-θ). if the fraction (p-2q)(n-2k)/2p is reduced fully to a/b, then the figure repeats after b cycles, and complete a total turns.
Terminal electron acceptor is a compound that gets reduced in the reaction by receiving electrons. Examples of anoxic environments can include soils, [11] groundwater, [12] wetlands, oil reservoirs, [13] poorly ventilated corners of the ocean and seafloor sediments. Furthermore, denitrification can occur in oxic environments as well.
The so-called totatives 1, 5, 7 and 11 are the only integers in this set which are relatively prime to 12, and so the corresponding reduced residue system modulo 12 is {1, 5, 7, 11}. The cardinality of this set can be calculated with the totient function: φ(12) = 4. Some other reduced residue systems modulo 12 are: {13,17,19,23} {−11,−7 ...
In Boolean algebra, Petrick's method [1] (also known as Petrick function [2] or branch-and-bound method) is a technique described by Stanley R. Petrick (1931–2006) [3] [4] in 1956 [5] [6] for determining all minimum sum-of-products solutions from a prime implicant chart. [7]
For example, FAD, the fully oxidized form is subject to nucleophilic attack, the fully reduced form, FADH 2 has high polarizability, while the half reduced form is unstable in aqueous solution. [11] FAD is an aromatic ring system, whereas FADH 2 is not. [12]
