  2. Lowest common denominator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lowest_common_denominator

    Here, 36 is the least common multiple of 12 and 18. Their product, 216, is also a common denominator, but calculating with that denominator involves larger numbers ...

  3. Least common multiple - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Least_common_multiple

    A least common multiple of a and b is a common multiple that is minimal, in the sense that for any other common multiple n of a and b, m divides n. In general, two elements in a commutative ring can have no least common multiple or more than one. However, any two least common multiples of the same pair of elements are associates. [10]

  4. Buchberger's algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buchberger's_algorithm

    Repeat steps 2-4 until all possible pairs are considered, including those involving the new polynomials added in step 4. Output G; The polynomial S ij is commonly referred to as the S-polynomial, where S refers to subtraction (Buchberger) or syzygy (others). The pair of polynomials with which it is associated is commonly referred to as critical ...

  5. Euclidean algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_algorithm

    The step b := a mod b is equivalent to the above recursion formula r k ≡ r k−2 mod r k−1. The temporary variable t holds the value of r k−1 while the next remainder r k is being calculated. At the end of the loop iteration, the variable b holds the remainder r k, whereas the variable a holds its predecessor, r k−1.

  6. Symbolab - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbolab

    Symbolab is an answer engine [1] that provides step-by-step solutions to mathematical problems in a range of subjects. [2] It was originally developed by Israeli start-up company EqsQuest Ltd., under whom it was released for public use in 2011. In 2020, the company was acquired by American educational technology website Course Hero. [3] [4]

  7. Numerical methods for linear least squares - Wikipedia

    That is, where models with the same dependent variable but different sets of independent variables are to be considered, for essentially the same set of data-points. Computations for analyses that occur in a sequence, as the number of data-points increases. Special considerations for very extensive data-sets.

  8. Low-rank approximation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-rank_approximation

    In mathematics, low-rank approximation refers to the process of approximating a given matrix by a matrix of lower rank. More precisely, it is a minimization problem, in which the cost function measures the fit between a given matrix (the data) and an approximating matrix (the optimization variable), subject to a constraint that the approximating matrix has reduced rank.

  9. Equation solving - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation_solving

    Instantiating a symbolic solution with specific numbers gives a numerical solution; for example, a = 0 gives (x, y) = (1, 0) (that is, x = 1, y = 0), and a = 1 gives (x, y) = (2, 1). The distinction between known variables and unknown variables is generally made in the statement of the problem, by phrases such as "an equation in x and y ", or ...
