    To change ⁠ 1 / 3 ⁠ to a decimal, divide 1.000... by 3 (" 3 into 1.000... "), and stop when the desired accuracy is obtained, e.g., at 4 decimals with 0.3333. The fraction ⁠ 1 / 4 ⁠ can be written exactly with two decimal digits, while the fraction ⁠ 1 / 3 ⁠ cannot be written exactly as a decimal with a finite number of digits.

    In terms of partition, 20 / 5 means the size of each of 5 parts into which a set of size 20 is divided. For example, 20 apples divide into five groups of four apples, meaning that "twenty divided by five is equal to four". This is denoted as 20 / 5 = 4, or ⁠ 20 / 5 ⁠ = 4. [2] In the example, 20 is the dividend, 5 is the divisor, and 4 is ...

    64 (2 6) and 729 (3 6) cubelets arranged as cubes ((2 2) 3 and (3 2) 3, respectively) and as squares ((2 3) 2 and (3 3) 2, respectively) In arithmetic and algebra the sixth power of a number n is the result of multiplying six instances of n together. So: n 6 = n × n × n × n × n × n.

    The sclera and cornea form the fibrous tunic of the bulb of the eye; the sclera is opaque, and constitutes the posterior five-sixths of the tunic; the cornea is transparent, and forms the anterior sixth. The term "corneosclera" is also used to describe the sclera and cornea together. [1]

    Then in the second period by 2/12, in the third by 3/12, in the fourth by 3/12, fifth by 2/12 and at the end of the sixth period reaches its maximum with an increase of 1/12. The steps are 1:2:3:3:2:1 giving a total change of 12/12. Over the next six intervals the quantity reduces in a similar manner by 1, 2, 3, 3, 2, 1 twelfths.

    For example, when d=4, the hash table for two occurrences of d would contain the key-value pair 8 and 4+4, and the one for three occurrences, the key-value pair 2 and (4+4)/4 (strings shown in bold). The task is then reduced to recursively computing these hash tables for increasing n , starting from n=1 and continuing up to e.g. n=4.

    If the result of step 4 does not equal the result of step 5, then the original answer is wrong. If the two results match, then the original answer may be right, though it is not guaranteed to be. Example Assume the calculation 6,338 × 79, manually done, yielded a result of 500,702: Sum the digits of 6,338: (6 + 3 = 9, so count that as 0) + 3 ...
