  2. Fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraction

    The reciprocal of a proper fraction is improper, and the reciprocal of an improper fraction not equal to 1 (that is, numerator and denominator are not equal) is a proper fraction. When the numerator and denominator of a fraction are equal (for example, ⁠ 7 / 7 ⁠), its value is 1, and the fraction therefore is improper. Its reciprocal is ...

  3. 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.

  4. Multiplication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplication

    For example, since 4 multiplied by 3 equals 12, 12 divided by 3 equals 4. Indeed, multiplication by 3, followed by division by 3, yields the original number. The division of a number other than 0 by itself equals 1. Several mathematical concepts expand upon the fundamental idea of multiplication.

    Roblox is an online game platform and game creation system built around user-generated content and games, [1] [2] officially referred to as "experiences". [3] Games can be created by any user through the platforms game engine, Roblox Studio, [4] and then shared to and played by other players. [1]

  6. Irreducible fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irreducible_fraction

    Two fractions ⁠ a / b ⁠ and ⁠ c / d ⁠ are equal or equivalent if and only if ad = bc.) For example, ⁠ 1 / 4 ⁠, ⁠ 5 / 6 ⁠, and ⁠ −101 / 100 ⁠ are all irreducible fractions. On the other hand, ⁠ 2 / 4 ⁠ is reducible since it is equal in value to ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠, and the numerator of ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ is less than the numerator ...

  7. Cross-multiplication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-multiplication

    The rule of three [1] was a historical shorthand version for a particular form of cross-multiplication that could be taught to students by rote. It was considered the height of Colonial maths education [2] and still figures in the French national curriculum for secondary education, [3] and in the primary education curriculum of Spain. [4]

  8. Irrational number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irrational_number

    This polynomial has no rational roots, since the rational root theorem shows that the only possibilities are ±1, but x 0 is greater than 1. So x 0 is an irrational algebraic number. There are countably many algebraic numbers, since there are countably many integer polynomials.

  9. Erdős–Straus conjecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erdős–Straus_conjecture

    However, 1 is a square mod 3 (equal to the square of both 1 and 2 mod 3), so there can be no similar identity for all values of that are congruent to 1 mod 3. More generally, as 1 is a square mod n {\displaystyle n} for all n > 1 {\displaystyle n>1} , there can be no complete covering system of modular identities for all n {\displaystyle n ...
