  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 ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SBB_Ae_4/8

    The Ae 4/8 never had divided brake shoes or automatic braking rod adjustment; The locomotive's total weight of 127 t (125 long tons; 140 short tons) – coincidentally, the same as the later Ae 4/7 – led to an average weight of 18.6 t (18.3 long tons; 20.5 short tons) per axle, within the specified 20 t (20 long tons; 22 short tons) limit ...

  5. Division algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_algorithm

    Long division is the standard algorithm used for pen-and-paper division of multi-digit numbers expressed in decimal notation. It shifts gradually from the left to the right end of the dividend, subtracting the largest possible multiple of the divisor (at the digit level) at each stage; the multiples then become the digits of the quotient, and the final difference is then the remainder.

    The partial sums of the series 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + ⋯ are 1, 3, 6, 10, 15, etc.The nth partial sum is given by a simple formula: = = (+). This equation was known ...

  7. Divisibility rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divisibility_rule

    Take each digit of the number (371) in reverse order (173), multiplying them successively by the digits 1, 3, 2, 6, 4, 5, repeating with this sequence of multipliers as long as necessary (1, 3, 2, 6, 4, 5, 1, 3, 2, 6, 4, 5, ...), and adding the products (1×1 + 7×3 + 3×2 = 1 + 21 + 6 = 28). The original number is divisible by 7 if and only if ...

  8. Division by zero - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_by_zero

    Zero divided by a negative or positive number is either zero or is expressed as a fraction with zero as numerator and the finite quantity as denominator. Zero divided by zero is zero. In 830, Mahāvīra unsuccessfully tried to correct the mistake Brahmagupta made in his book Ganita Sara Samgraha: "A number remains unchanged when divided by zero ...

  9. 1/4 + 1/16 + 1/64 + 1/256 + ⋯ - ⋯ - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1/4_%2B_1/16_%2B_1/64_%2B...

    3s = 1. The series ⁠ 1 / 4 ⁠ + ⁠ 1 / 16 ⁠ + ⁠ 1 / 64 ⁠ + ⁠ 1 / 256 ⁠ + ⋯ lends itself to some particularly simple visual demonstrations because a square and a triangle both divide into four similar pieces, each of which contains ⁠ 1 / 4 ⁠ the area of the original.
