  2. Ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ratio

    If the ratio consists of only two values, it can be represented as a fraction, in particular as a decimal fraction. For example, older televisions have a 4:3 aspect ratio, which means that the width is 4/3 of the height (this can also be expressed as 1.33:1 or just 1.33 rounded to two decimal places). More recent widescreen TVs have a 16:9 ...

  3. Fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraction

    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 ...

  4. Accuracy and precision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accuracy_and_precision

    When computing accuracy in multiclass classification, accuracy is simply the fraction of correct classifications: [14] [15] = This is usually expressed as a percentage. For example, if a classifier makes ten predictions and nine of them are correct, the accuracy is 90%.

  5. Approximations of π - Wikipedia

    He also gave two other approximations of π: π ≈ 22 ⁄ 7 and π ≈ 355 ⁄ 113, which are not as accurate as his decimal result. The latter fraction is the best possible rational approximation of π using fewer than five decimal digits in the numerator and denominator. Zu Chongzhi's results surpass the accuracy reached in Hellenistic ...

  6. Gini coefficient - Wikipedia

    If there are no negative incomes, it is also equal to 2A and 1 − 2B due to the fact that A + B = 0.5. [23] Assuming non-negative income or wealth for all, the Gini coefficient's theoretical range is from 0 (total equality) to 1 (absolute inequality). This measure is often rendered as a percentage, spanning 0 to 100.

  7. Hexadecimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexadecimal

    Hexadecimal (also known as base-16 or simply hex) is a positional numeral system that represents numbers using a radix (base) of sixteen. Unlike the decimal system representing numbers using ten symbols, hexadecimal uses sixteen distinct symbols, most often the symbols "0"–"9" to represent values 0 to 9 and "A"–"F" to represent values from ten to fifteen.

    A sucrose solution with an apparent specific gravity (20°/20 °C) of 1.040 would be 9.99325 °Bx or 9.99359 °P while the representative sugar body, the International Commission for Uniform Methods of Sugar Analysis (ICUMSA), which favours the use of mass fraction, would report the solution strength as 9.99249%. Because the differences between ...
