    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rothenberg_propriety

    Rothenberg hypothesizes that proper scales provide a point or frame of reference which aids perception ("stable gestalt") and that improper scales contradictions require a drone or ostinato to provide a point of reference. [3] Hirajōshi scale on C Play ⓘ An example of an improper scale is the Japanese Hirajōshi scale.

  3. Fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraction

    [12] [13] In general, a common fraction is said to be a proper fraction, if the absolute value of the fraction is strictly less than one—that is, if the fraction is greater than −1 and less than 1. [14] [15] It is said to be an improper fraction, or sometimes top-heavy fraction, [16] if the absolute value of the fraction is greater than or ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ratio

    For example, a ratio of 3:2 is the same as 12:8. It is usual either to reduce terms to the lowest common denominator , or to express them in parts per hundred ( percent ). If a mixture contains substances A, B, C and D in the ratio 5:9:4:2 then there are 5 parts of A for every 9 parts of B, 4 parts of C and 2 parts of D.

  5. Irreducible fraction - Wikipedia

    In the first step both numbers were divided by 10, which is a factor common to both 120 and 90. In the second step, they were divided by 3. The final result, ⁠ 4 / 3 ⁠, is an irreducible fraction because 4 and 3 have no common factors other than 1.

  6. Rational function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rational_function

    This is useful in solving such recurrences, since by using partial fraction decomposition we can write any proper rational function as a sum of factors of the form 1 / (ax + b) and expand these as geometric series, giving an explicit formula for the Taylor coefficients; this is the method of generating functions.

    Maximal ideal: A proper ideal I is called a maximal ideal if there exists no other proper ideal J with I a proper subset of J. The factor ring of a maximal ideal is a simple ring in general and is a field for commutative rings. [12] Minimal ideal: A nonzero ideal is called minimal if it contains no other nonzero ideal.
