  2. Fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraction

    Unit fractions can also be expressed using negative exponents, as in 21, which represents 1/2, and 22, which represents 1/(2 2) or 1/4. A dyadic fraction is a common fraction in which the denominator is a power of two, e.g. ⁠ 1 / 8 ⁠ = ⁠ 1 / 2 3 ⁠. In Unicode, precomposed fraction characters are in the Number Forms block.

  3. One half - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_half

    u+00be ¾ vulgar fraction three quarters The "one-half" symbol has its own code point as a precomposed character in the Number Forms block of Unicode , rendering as ½ . The reduced size of this symbol may make it illegible to readers with relatively mild visual impairment ; consequently the decomposed forms 12 or ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ may be more ...

  4. Number Forms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number_Forms

    Number Forms is a Unicode block containing Unicode compatibility characters that have specific meaning as numbers, but are constructed from other characters. They consist primarily of vulgar fractions and Roman numerals. In addition to the characters in the Number Forms block, three fractions (¼, ½, and ¾) were inherited from ISO-8859-1 ...

  5. Repeating decimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repeating_decimal

    For example, in duodecimal, ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ = 0.6, ⁠ 1 / 3 ⁠ = 0.4, ⁠ 1 / 4 ⁠ = 0.3 and ⁠ 1 / 6 ⁠ = 0.2 all terminate; ⁠ 1 / 5 ⁠ = 0. 2497 repeats with period length 4, in contrast with the equivalent decimal expansion of 0.2; ⁠ 1 / 7 ⁠ = 0. 186A35 has period 6 in duodecimal, just as it does in decimal. If b is an integer base ...

  6. 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 ...

  7. 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. [ 1]

  8. Particular values of the gamma function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particular_values_of_the...

    Borwein and Zucker [2] have found that () can be expressed algebraically in terms of π, K(k(1)), K(k(2)), K(k(3)), and K(k(6)) where K(k(N)) is a complete elliptic integral of the first kind. This permits efficiently approximating the gamma function of rational arguments to high precision using quadratically convergent arithmetic–geometric ...

  9. Binary number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_number

    Horus-Eye fractions are a binary numbering system for fractional quantities of grain, liquids, or other measures, in which a fraction of a hekat is expressed as a sum of the binary fractions 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/16, 1/32, and 1/64.
