  2. One half - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_half

    The "one-half" symbol has its own code point as a precomposed character in the Number Forms block of Unicode, rendering as ½.. The reduced size of this symbol may make it illegible to readers with relatively mild visual impairment; consequently the decomposed forms 12 or ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ may be more appropriate.

  3. Fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraction

    Unit fractions can also be expressed using negative exponents, as in 21, which represents 1/2, and 22, which represents 1/(2 2) or 1/4. A dyadic fraction is a common fraction in which the denominator is a power of two, e.g. ⁠ 1 / 8 ⁠ = ⁠ 1 / 2 3 ⁠. In Unicode, precomposed fraction characters are in the Number Forms block.

  6. Image sensor format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_sensor_format

    Sizes are often expressed as a fraction of an inch, with a one in the numerator, and a decimal number in the denominator. For example, 1/2.5 converts to 2/5 as a simple fraction, or 0.4 as a decimal number. This "inch" system gives a result approximately 1.5 times the length of the diagonal of the sensor.

    By using a dot to divide the digits into two groups, one can also write fractions in the positional system. For example, the base 2 numeral 10.11 denotes 1×2 1 + 0×2 0 + 1×21 + 1×22 = 2.75. In general, numbers in the base b system are of the form:

  8. Decimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal

    A repeating decimal is an infinite decimal that, after some place, repeats indefinitely the same sequence of digits (e.g., 5.123144144144144... = 5.123 144). [4] An infinite decimal represents a rational number , the quotient of two integers, if and only if it is a repeating decimal or has a finite number of non-zero digits.

  9. Numeral prefix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numeral_prefix

    In Latin and Greek, the ordinal forms are also used for fractions for amounts higher than 2; only the fraction ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ has special forms. The same suffix may be used with more than one category of number, as for example the orginary numbers second ary and terti ary and the distributive numbers bi nary and ter nary .
