A method analogous to piece-wise linear approximation but using only arithmetic instead of algebraic equations, uses the multiplication tables in reverse: the square root of a number between 1 and 100 is between 1 and 10, so if we know 25 is a perfect square (5 × 5), and 36 is a perfect square (6 × 6), then the square root of a number greater than or equal to 25 but less than 36, begins with ...
Thus 24/1000 (2.4%) of the total output will be defective and the likelihood that a randomly selected defective item was produced by machine C is 5/24 (~20.83%). This problem can also be solved using Bayes' theorem: Let X i denote the event that a randomly chosen item was made by the i th machine (for i = A,B,C).
At any step in a Gauss-Seidel iteration, solve the first equation for in terms of , …,; then solve the second equation for in terms of just found and the remaining , …,; and continue to . Then, repeat iterations until convergence is achieved, or break if the divergence in the solutions start to diverge beyond a predefined level.

The first 3 powers of 2 with all but last digit odd is 2 4 = 16, 2 5 = 32 and 2 9 = 512. The next such power of 2 of form 2 n should have n of at least 6 digits. The only powers of 2 with all digits distinct are 2 0 = 1 to 2 15 = 32 768 , 2 20 = 1 048 576 and 2 29 = 536 870 912 .
[1] [2] [3] It is defined as the number of millilitres (mL) of pure ethanol present in 100 mL (3.5 imp fl oz; 3.4 US fl oz) of solution at 20 °C (68 °F). The number of millilitres of pure ethanol is the mass of the ethanol divided by its density at 20 °C (68 °F), which is 0.78945 g/mL (0.82353 oz/US fl oz; 0.79122 oz/imp fl oz; 0.45633 oz ...
The result reported by Charles Hutton (1778) suggested a density of 4.5 g/cm 3 (4 + 1 / 2 times the density of water), about 20% below the modern value. [16] This immediately led to estimates on the densities and masses of the Sun , Moon and planets , sent by Hutton to Jérôme Lalande for inclusion in his planetary tables.
