2. Word problem (mathematics education) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word_problem_(mathematics...

   Word problem from the Līlāvatī (12th century), with its English translation and solution. In science education, a word problem is a mathematical exercise (such as in a textbook, worksheet, or exam) where significant background information on the problem is presented in ordinary language rather than in mathematical notation.

3. Fraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraction

   To change a common fraction to a decimal, do a long division of the decimal representations of the numerator by the denominator (this is idiomatically also phrased as "divide the denominator into the numerator"), and round the answer to the desired accuracy. For example, to change ⁠ 1 / 4 ⁠ to a decimal, divide 1.00 by 4 (" 4 into 1.00 ...

4. List of NP-complete problems - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_NP-complete_problems

   The problem for graphs is NP-complete if the edge lengths are assumed integers. The problem for points on the plane is NP-complete with the discretized Euclidean metric and rectilinear metric. The problem is known to be NP-hard with the (non-discretized) Euclidean metric. [3]: ND22, ND23

5. Mathematics - Wikipedia

   An example of the second case is the decidability of the first-order theory of the real numbers, a problem of pure mathematics that was proved true by Alfred Tarski, with an algorithm that is impossible to implement because of a computational complexity that is much too high. [122]

6. Subtraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subtraction

   For example, 26 cannot be subtracted from 11 to give a natural number. Such a case uses one of two approaches: Conclude that 26 cannot be subtracted from 11; subtraction becomes a partial function. Give the answer as an integer representing a negative number, so the result of subtracting 26 from 11 is −15.

7. Continued fraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continued_fraction

   For example, there is a close relationship between the simple continued fraction in canonical form for the irrational real number α, and the way lattice points in two dimensions lie to either side of the line y = αx. Generalizing this idea, one might ask about something related to lattice points in three or more dimensions.

8. Spreadsheet - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spreadsheet

   A workbook is physically represented by a file containing all the data for the book, the sheets, and the cells with the sheets. Worksheets are normally represented by tabs that flip between pages, each one containing one of the sheets, although Numbers changes this model significantly. Cells in a multi-sheet book add the sheet name to their ...

9. Verbal arithmetic - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verbal_arithmetic

   Verbal arithmetic, also known as alphametics, cryptarithmetic, cryptarithm or word addition, is a type of mathematical game consisting of a mathematical equation among unknown numbers, whose digits are represented by letters of the alphabet. The goal is to identify the value of each letter.
