  2. Cancelling out - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cancelling_out

    For example, a fraction is put in lowest terms by cancelling out the common factors of the numerator and the denominator. [2] As another example, if a × b = a × c , then the multiplicative term a can be canceled out if a ≠0, resulting in the equivalent expression b = c ; this is equivalent to dividing through by a .

  3. Rate (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate_(mathematics)

    In mathematics, a rate is the quotient of two quantities, often represented as a fraction. [1] If the divisor (or fraction denominator) in the rate is equal to one expressed as a single unit, and if it is assumed that this quantity can be changed systematically (i.e., is an independent variable), then the dividend (the fraction numerator) of the rate expresses the corresponding rate of change ...

  4. Clearing denominators - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clearing_denominators

    The smallest common multiple of the two denominators 6 and 15z is 30z, so one multiplies both sides by 30z: 5 x z + 2 y = 30 z . {\displaystyle 5xz+2y=30z.\,} The result is an equation with no fractions.

  5. Rationalisation (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rationalisation_(mathematics)

    In elementary algebra, root rationalisation (or rationalization) is a process by which radicals in the denominator of an algebraic fraction are eliminated.. If the denominator is a monomial in some radical, say , with k < n, rationalisation consists of multiplying the numerator and the denominator by , and replacing by x (this is allowed, as, by definition, a n th root of x is a number that ...

  6. Dyadic rational - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyadic_rational

    In mathematics, a dyadic rational or binary rational is a number that can be expressed as a fraction whose denominator is a power of two. For example, 1/2, 3/2, and 3/8 are dyadic rationals, but 1/3 is not. These numbers are important in computer science because they are the only ones with finite binary representations. Dyadic rationals also ...

    In mathematics, a rational number is a number that can be expressed as the quotient or fraction ⁠ ⁠ of two integers, a numerator p and a non-zero denominator q. For example, ⁠ 3 7 {\displaystyle {\tfrac {3}{7}}} ⁠ is a rational number, as is every integer (for example, − 5 = − 5 1 {\displaystyle -5={\tfrac {-5}{1}}} ).
