And the other three binary-expansion repeating sequences give the 3-cycle 110110110... → 101101101... → 011011011... → 110110110.... Either of these 3-cycles can be converted to fraction form: for example, the first-given 3-cycle can be written as 1 / 7 → 2 / 7 → 4 / 7 → 1 / 7 .

The convergents of the continued fraction for φ are ratios of successive Fibonacci numbers: φ n = F n+1 / F n is the n-th convergent, and the (n + 1)-st convergent can be found from the recurrence relation φ n+1 = 1 + 1 / φ n. [31] The matrix formed from successive convergents of any continued fraction has a determinant of +1 or −1.
The base "Roman fraction" is S, indicating 1 ⁄ 2. The use of S (as in VIIS to indicate 7 1 ⁄ 2) is attested in some ancient inscriptions [45] and also in the now rare apothecaries' system (usually in the form SS): [44] but while Roman numerals for whole numbers are essentially decimal, S does not correspond to 5 ⁄ 10, as one might expect ...
For example, the Environmental Protection Agency estimates that coal kills 30,000 people a year, [268] as a result of its environmental impact, while 60 people died in the Chernobyl disaster. [269] A real world example of impact provided by proponents is the 650,000 ton increase in carbon emissions in the two months following the closure of the ...
The most recent examples include the snowstorms of 16 February 2021 [60] and 24 January 2022, [61] when the entire urban area was blanketed in snow. Athens may get particularly hot in the summer, owing partly to the strong urban heat island effect characterizing the city. [ 62 ]
[7] [8] Since China's transition to a socialist market economy through controlled privatisation and deregulation, [9] [10] the country has seen its ranking increase from ninth in 1978, to second in 2010; China's economic growth accelerated during this period and its share of global nominal GDP surged from 2% in 1980 to 18% in 2021.
The Pareto principle may apply to fundraising, i.e. 20% of the donors contributing towards 80% of the total. The Pareto principle (also known as the 80/20 rule, the law of the vital few and the principle of factor sparsity [1] [2]) states that for many outcomes, roughly 80% of consequences come from 20% of causes (the "vital few").
