2. Fraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraction

   A compound fraction is a fraction of a fraction, or any number of fractions connected with the word of, [22] [23] corresponding to multiplication of fractions. To reduce a compound fraction to a simple fraction, just carry out the multiplication (see § Multiplication).

3. Clearing denominators - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clearing_denominators

   In mathematics, the method of clearing denominators, also called clearing fractions, is a technique for simplifying an equation equating two expressions that each are a sum of rational expressions – which includes simple fractions.

4. Elementary algebra - Wikipedia

   Algebraic notation describes the rules and conventions for writing mathematical expressions, as well as the terminology used for talking about parts of expressions. For example, the expression + has the following components: Algebraic expression notation: 1 – power (exponent) 2 – coefficient 3 – term

5. Continued fraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continued_fraction

   A continued fraction is a mathematical expression that can be written as a fraction with a denominator that is a sum that contains another simple or continued fraction. Depending on whether this iteration terminates with a simple fraction or not, the continued fraction is finite or infinite .

6. Mathematical notation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_notation

   Mathematical notation consists of using symbols for representing operations, unspecified numbers, relations, and any other mathematical objects and assembling them into expressions and formulas. Mathematical notation is widely used in mathematics , science , and engineering for representing complex concepts and properties in a concise ...

7. Expression (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

   In the equation 7x − 5 = 2, the sides of the equation are expressions. In mathematics, an expression is a written arrangement of symbols following the context-dependent, syntactic conventions of mathematical notation. Symbols can denote numbers, variables, operations, and functions. [1]

8. Irreducible fraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irreducible_fraction

   The notion of irreducible fraction generalizes to the field of fractions of any unique factorization domain: any element of such a field can be written as a fraction in which denominator and numerator are coprime, by dividing both by their greatest common divisor. [7] This applies notably to rational expressions over a field. The irreducible ...

   Functional notation: if the first is the name (symbol) of a function, denotes the value of the function applied to the expression between the parentheses; for example, (), ⁡ (+). In the case of a multivariate function , the parentheses contain several expressions separated by commas, such as f ( x , y ) {\displaystyle f(x,y)} .
