The entire fraction may be expressed as a single composition, in which case it is hyphenated, or as a number of fractions with a numerator of one, in which case they are not. (For example, two-fifths is the fraction 2 / 5 and two fifths is the same fraction understood as 2 instances of 1 / 5 .) Fractions should always be ...

Graph of the fractional part of real numbers The fractional part or decimal part [ 1 ] of a non‐negative real number x {\displaystyle x} is the excess beyond that number's integer part . The latter is defined as the largest integer not greater than x , called floor of x or ⌊ x ⌋ {\displaystyle \lfloor x\rfloor } .
Egyptian fractions can provide a solution to rope-burning puzzles, in which a given duration is to be measured by igniting non-uniform ropes which burn out after a unit time. Any rational fraction of a unit of time can be measured by expanding the fraction into a sum of unit fractions and then, for each unit fraction /, burning a rope so that ...
As they do in the reals, the dyadic rationals form a dense subset of the 2-adic numbers, [30] and are the set of 2-adic numbers with finite binary expansions. Every 2-adic number can be decomposed into the sum of a 2-adic integer and a dyadic rational; in this sense, the dyadic rationals can represent the fractional parts of 2-adic numbers, but ...
For the remaining 5 hours, you get time and a half, which is $15 per hour. So, your overtime pay will total $75. For the full week, having worked 45 hours, you’ll earn $475 before taxes.
One half is the rational number that lies midway between 0 and 1 on the number line. Multiplication by one half is equivalent to division by two, or "halving"; conversely, division by one half is equivalent to multiplication by two, or "doubling". A square of side length one, here dissected into rectangles whose areas are successive powers of ...
