    Thus the fraction ⁠ 3 / 4 ⁠ can be used to represent the ratio 3:4 (the ratio of the part to the whole), and the division 3 ÷ 4 (three divided by four). We can also write negative fractions, which represent the opposite of a positive fraction. For example, if ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ represents a half-dollar profit, then − ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ represents ...

    Eighth rightmost digit = 3 × 3 = 9 Ninth rightmost digit = 0 Tenth rightmost digit = 1 × −1 = −1 Sum = 33 33 modulus 7 = 5 Remainder = 5 Digit pair method of divisibility by 7. This method uses 1, −3, 2 pattern on the digit pairs. That is, the divisibility of any number by seven can be tested by first separating the number into digit ...

    Subdivisions of an inch are typically written using dyadic fractions with odd number numerators; for example, two and three-eighths of an inch would be written as ⁠2 + 3 / 8 ⁠ ″ and not as 2.375″ nor as ⁠2 + 6 / 16 ⁠ ″. However, for engineering purposes fractions are commonly given to three or four places of decimals and have been ...

    The curved lines, called ties, add the note values together. In Western musical notation, a dotted note is a note with a small dot written after it. [a] In modern practice, the first dot increases the duration of the basic note by half (the original note with an extra beam) of its original value. This means that a dotted note is equivalent to ...

    The machine will perform the following three steps on any odd number until only one 1 remains: Append 1 to the (right) end of the number in binary (giving 2n + 1); Add this to the original number by binary addition (giving 2n + 1 + n = 3n + 1); Remove all trailing 0 s (that is, repeatedly divide by 2 until the result is odd).
