  2. Factorization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorization

    If one tests the values of q in increasing order, the first divisor that is found is necessarily a prime number, and the cofactor r = n / q cannot have any divisor smaller than q. For getting the complete factorization, it suffices thus to continue the algorithm by searching a divisor of r that is not smaller than q and not greater than √ r.

    The divisors of 10 illustrated with Cuisenaire rods: 1, 2, 5, and 10. In mathematics, a divisor of an integer , also called a factor of , is an integer that may be multiplied by some integer to produce . [1] In this case, one also says that is a multiple of .

  4. Floor and ceiling functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floor_and_ceiling_functions

    In mathematics, the floor function is the function that takes as input a real number x, and gives as output the greatest integer less than or equal to x, denoted ⌊x⌋ or floor(x). Similarly, the ceiling function maps x to the least integer greater than or equal to x, denoted ⌈x⌉ or ceil(x). [1]

  5. Greatest common divisor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greatest_common_divisor

    The greatest common divisor (GCD) of integers a and b, at least one of which is nonzero, is the greatest positive integer d such that d is a divisor of both a and b; that is, there are integers e and f such that a = de and b = df, and d is the largest such integer.

    What is a 1.5 factor rate? A factor rate of 1.50 is on the high end of what a lender may charge to borrow money. You can determine the cost of the money you want to borrow by multiplying the ...

  7. Integer factorization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer_factorization

    Every positive integer greater than 1 is either the product of two or more integer factors greater than 1, in which case it is a composite number, or it is not, in which case it is a prime number. For example, 15 is a composite number because 15 = 3 · 5, but 7 is a prime number because it cannot be decomposed in this way.

    1. Means "greater than or equal to". That is, whatever A and B are, A ≥ B is equivalent to A > B or A = B. 2. Between two groups, may mean that the second one is a subgroup of the first one. 1. Means "much less than" and "much greater than".

  9. Maximum and minimum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_and_minimum

    The value of the function at a maximum point is called the maximum value of the function, denoted (()), and the value of the function at a minimum point is called the minimum value of the function, (denoted (()) for clarity). Symbolically, this can be written as follows:
