That 641 is a factor of F 5 can be deduced from the equalities 641 = 2 7 × 5 + 1 and 641 = 2 4 + 5 4. It follows from the first equality that 2 7 × 5 ≡ −1 (mod 641) and therefore (raising to the fourth power) that 2 28 × 5 4 ≡ 1 (mod 641). On the other hand, the second equality implies that 5 4 ≡ −2 4 (mod 641
In the first step both numbers were divided by 10, which is a factor common to both 120 and 90. In the second step, they were divided by 3. The final result, 4 / 3 , is an irreducible fraction because 4 and 3 have no common factors other than 1.
Simplification is the process of replacing a mathematical expression by an equivalent one that is simpler (usually shorter), according to a well-founded ordering. Examples include:
0, 1, 3, 6, 2, 7, 13, 20, 12, 21, 11, 22, 10, 23, 9, 24, 8, 25, 43, 62, ... "subtract if possible, otherwise add" : a (0) = 0; for n > 0, a ( n ) = a ( n − 1) − n if that number is positive and not already in the sequence, otherwise a ( n ) = a ( n − 1) + n , whether or not that number is already in the sequence.
25 is the sum of the five consecutive single-digit odd natural numbers 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9. 25 is a centered octagonal number, [1] a centered square number, [2] a centered octahedral number, [3] and an automorphic number. [4] 25 percent (%) is equal to 1 / 4 . It is the smallest decimal Friedman number as it can be expressed by its own ...
There are three regular star polygons, {16/3}, {16/5}, {16/7}, using the same vertices, but connecting every third, fifth or seventh points. There are also three compounds: {16/2} is reduced to 2{8} as two octagons , {16/4} is reduced to 4{4} as four squares and {16/6} reduces to 2{8/3} as two octagrams , and finally {16/8} is reduced to 8{2 ...
[5] In 493 AD, Victorius of Aquitaine wrote a 98-column multiplication table which gave (in Roman numerals ) the product of every number from 2 to 50 times and the rows were "a list of numbers starting with one thousand, descending by hundreds to one hundred, then descending by tens to ten, then by ones to one, and then the fractions down to 1/ ...
In other cases, Maxwell's equations are solved in a finite region of space, with appropriate conditions on the boundary of that region, for example an artificial absorbing boundary representing the rest of the universe, [24] [25] or periodic boundary conditions, or walls that isolate a small region from the outside world (as with a waveguide or ...
