  2. Algebraic fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_fraction

    In algebra, an algebraic fraction is a fraction whose numerator and denominator are algebraic expressions.Two examples of algebraic fractions are + and +.Algebraic fractions are subject to the same laws as arithmetic fractions.

  3. List of mathematical constants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mathematical_constants

    A mathematical constant is a key number whose value is fixed by an unambiguous definition, often referred to by a symbol (e.g., an alphabet letter), or by mathematicians' names to facilitate using it across multiple mathematical problems. [1]

    where c 1 = ⁠ 1 / a 1 ⁠, c 2 = ⁠ a 1 / a 2 ⁠, c 3 = ⁠ a 2 / a 1 a 3 ⁠, and in general c n+1 = ⁠ 1 / a n+1 c n ⁠. Second, if none of the partial denominators b i are zero we can use a similar procedure to choose another sequence { d i } to make each partial denominator a 1:

  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. 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.

  8. Proof that 22/7 exceeds π - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof_that_22/7_exceeds_π

    [2] The purpose of the proof is not primarily to convince its readers that ⁠ 22 / 7 ⁠ (or ⁠3 + 1 / 7 ⁠) is indeed bigger than π; systematic methods of computing the value of π exist. If one knows that π is approximately 3.14159, then it trivially follows that π < ⁠ 22 / 7 ⁠, which is approximately 3.142857.

    The partial sums of the series 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + ⋯ are 1, 3, 6, 10, 15, etc.The nth partial sum is given by a simple formula: = = (+). This equation was known ...
