However the titles of bonds issued by governments and other issuers use the fractional form, e.g. "3 + 1 ⁄ 2 % Unsecured Loan Stock 2032 Series 2". (When interest rates are very low, the number 0 is included if the interest rate is less than 1%, e.g. " 0 + 3 ⁄ 4 % Treasury Stock", not " 3 ⁄ 4 % Treasury Stock".)
A survey cited by the National Association of Realtors (NAR) on Friday found 56% of potential buyers are holding out for rates between 5.5% and 5.75% before making a purchase.
6 1 2 1 1 −1 4 5 9. and would be written in modern notation as 6 1 / 4 , 1 1 / 5 , and 2 − 1 / 9 (i.e., 1 8 / 9 ). The horizontal fraction bar is first attested in the work of Al-Hassār (fl. 1200), [35] a Muslim mathematician from Fez, Morocco, who specialized in Islamic inheritance jurisprudence.
For example, if one test is performed at the 5% level and the corresponding null hypothesis is true, there is only a 5% risk of incorrectly rejecting the null hypothesis. However, if 100 tests are each conducted at the 5% level and all corresponding null hypotheses are true, the expected number of incorrect rejections (also known as false ...
For example, π(10) = 4 because there are four prime numbers (2, 3, 5 and 7) less than or equal to 10. The prime number theorem then states that x / ln(x) is a good approximation to π(x), in the sense that the limit of the quotient of the two functions π(x) and x / ln(x) as x approaches infinity is 1:
A mikvah consists of 40 se'ah (approximately 200 U.S. gallons or 760 liters) of water; The prophet Elijah had to walk 40 days and 40 nights before arriving at mount Horeb (1 Kings 19:8). 40 lashes is one of the punishments meted out by the Sanhedrin (Deuteronomy 25:3), though in actual practice only 39 lashes were administered.

A player is chosen as "It" and a landmark such as a tree or lamppost is chosen as the base, this is sometimes called “the mob post”. Players who are not "It" run and hide, while "It" counts to a certain number depending on the version of the game; usually 40, 44 [2] or 100. "It" looks for the other players, while the players try to get to ...
10 700 is thus an overestimate of the number of possible games that can be played in 200 moves and an underestimate of the number of games that can be played in 361 moves. Since there are about 31 million seconds in a year, it would take about 2 + 1 ⁄ 4 years, playing 16 hours a day at one move per second, to play 47 million moves.
