2. Unit fraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_fraction

   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.

3. Fraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraction

   A simple fraction (also known as a common fraction or vulgar fraction, where vulgar is Latin for "common") is a rational number written as a / b or ⁠ ⁠, where a and b are both integers. [9] As with other fractions, the denominator (b) cannot be zero. Examples include ⁠ 1 2 ⁠, − ⁠ 8 5 ⁠, ⁠ −8 5 ⁠, and ⁠ 8 −5 ⁠.

4. One half - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_half

   One half is the irreducible fraction resulting from dividing one (1) by two (2), or the fraction resulting from dividing any number by its double. It often appears in mathematical equations, recipes, measurements, etc.

5. 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 + 1/16 + ⋯ - ⋯ - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1/2_%2B_1/4_%2B_1/8_%2B_1/...

   1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 + 1/16 + ⋯. First six summands drawn as portions of a square. The geometric series on the real line. In mathematics, the infinite series ⁠ 1 2 ⁠ + ⁠ 1 4 ⁠ + ⁠ 1 8 ⁠ + ⁠ 1 16 ⁠ + ··· is an elementary example of a geometric series that converges absolutely. The sum of the series is 1. In summation notation ...

6. Partial fraction decomposition - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partial_fraction_decomposition

   In algebra, the partial fraction decomposition or partial fraction expansion of a rational fraction (that is, a fraction such that the numerator and the denominator are both polynomials) is an operation that consists of expressing the fraction as a sum of a polynomial (possibly zero) and one or several fractions with a simpler denominator.

7. Continued fraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continued_fraction

   A continued fraction is a mathematical expression that can be writen 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. [1]

8. Rhind Mathematical Papyrus 2/n table - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhind_Mathematical_Papyrus...

   The Rhind Mathematical Papyrus, [1][2] an ancient Egyptian mathematical work, includes a mathematical table for converting rational numbers of the form 2/ n into Egyptian fractions (sums of distinct unit fractions), the form the Egyptians used to write fractional numbers. The text describes the representation of 50 rational numbers.

9. Multiplication table - Wikipedia

   Cycles of the unit digit of multiples of integers ending in 1, 3, 7 and 9 (upper row), and 2, 4, 6 and 8 (lower row) on a telephone keypad. Figure 1 is used for multiples of 1, 3, 7, and 9. Figure 2 is used for the multiples of 2, 4, 6, and 8. These patterns can be used to memorize the multiples of any number from 0 to 10, except 5.
