2. Fraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraction

   Fractions with large denominators that are not powers of ten are often rendered in this fashion (e.g., ⁠ 1 / 117 ⁠ as "one over one hundred seventeen"), while those with denominators divisible by ten are typically read in the normal ordinal fashion (e.g., ⁠ 6 / 1000000 ⁠ as "six-millionths", "six millionths", or "six one-millionths").

3. Irreducible fraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irreducible_fraction

   For example, ⁠ 1 / 4 ⁠, ⁠ 5 / 6 ⁠, and ⁠ −101 / 100 ⁠ are all irreducible fractions. On the other hand, ⁠ 2 / 4 ⁠ is reducible since it is equal in value to ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠, and the numerator of ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ is less than the numerator of ⁠ 2 / 4 ⁠. A fraction that is reducible can be reduced by dividing both the numerator ...

   Slices of approximately 1/8 of a pizza. A unit fraction is a positive fraction with one as its numerator, 1/ n.It is the multiplicative inverse (reciprocal) of the denominator of the fraction, which must be a positive natural number.

5. Erdős–Straus conjecture - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erdős–Straus_conjecture

   When a rational number is expanded into a sum of unit fractions, the expansion is called an Egyptian fraction.This way of writing fractions dates to the mathematics of ancient Egypt, in which fractions were written this way instead of in the more modern vulgar fraction form with a numerator and denominator .

6. Mediant (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

   If two fractions a/c < b/d are adjacent (neighbouring) fractions in a segment of F n then the determinant relation = mentioned above is generally valid and therefore the mediant is the simplest fraction in the interval (a/c, b/d), in the sense of being the fraction with the smallest denominator.
