    It has the height of Canadian P4 paper (215 mm × 280 mm, about 81⁄2 in × 11 in) and the width of international A4 paper (210 mm × 297 mm or 8.27 in × 11.69 in), i.e. it uses the smaller value among the two for each side. The table shows how this format can be generalized into an entire format series.

  3. Division (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_(mathematics)

    In terms of partition, 20 / 5 means the size of each of 5 parts into which a set of size 20 is divided. 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 ...

    Division by two. An orange that has been sliced into two halves. In mathematics, division by two or halving has also been called mediation or dimidiation. [ 1] The treatment of this as a different operation from multiplication and division by other numbers goes back to the ancient Egyptians, whose multiplication algorithm used division by two ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coefficient_of_variation

    The coefficient of variation (CV) is defined as the ratio of the standard deviation to the mean , [1] It shows the extent of variability in relation to the mean of the population. The coefficient of variation should be computed only for data measured on scales that have a meaningful zero (ratio scale) and hence allow relative comparison of two ...

  8. Square root of 2 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square_root_of_2

    The square root of two forms the relationship of f-stops in photographic lenses, which in turn means that the ratio of areas between two successive apertures is 2. The celestial latitude (declination) of the Sun during a planet's astronomical cross-quarter day points equals the tilt of the planet's axis divided by .

  9. Tritone - Wikipedia

    Since they are the inverse of each other, by definition A4 and d5 always add up to exactly one perfect octave: A4 + d5 = P8. On the other hand, two A4 add up to six whole tones. In equal temperament, this is equal to exactly one perfect octave: A4 + A4 = P8. In quarter-comma meantone temperament, this is a diesis (128:125) less than a perfect ...
