  2. Periodic continued fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_continued_fraction

    The proof is straightforward. From the fraction itself, one can construct the quadratic equation with integral coefficients that x must satisfy. Lagrange proved the converse of Euler's theorem: if x is a quadratic irrational, then the regular continued fraction expansion of x is periodic. [4]

  3. Fractional part - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fractional_part

    Graph of the fractional part of real numbers. The fractional part or decimal part [1] of a non‐negative real number is the excess beyond that number's integer part. The latter is defined as the largest integer not greater than x, called floor of x or ⌊ ⌋. Then, the fractional part can be formulated as a difference:

  4. Repeating decimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repeating_decimal

    Conversely the period of the repeating decimal of a fraction ⁠ c / d ⁠ will be (at most) the smallest number n such that 10 n − 1 is divisible by d. For example, the fraction ⁠ 2 / 7 ⁠ has d = 7, and the smallest k that makes 10 k − 1 divisible by 7 is k = 6, because 999999 = 7 × 142857. The period of the fraction ⁠ 2 / 7 ⁠ is ...

  5. Midy's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midy's_theorem

    In mathematics, Midy's theorem, named after French mathematician E. Midy, [1] is a statement about the decimal expansion of fractions a/p where p is a prime and a/p has a repeating decimal expansion with an even period (sequence A028416 in the OEIS). If the period of the decimal representation of a/p is 2n, so that

  6. Simple continued fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_continued_fraction

    The fractional part is the reciprocal of ⁠ 93 / 43 ⁠ which is about 2.1628. Use the integer part, 2, as an approximation for the reciprocal to obtain a second approximation of 4 + ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ = 4.5. Now, ⁠ 93 / 43 ⁠ = 2 + ⁠ 7 / 43 ⁠; the remaining fractional part, ⁠ 7 / 43 ⁠, is the reciprocal of ⁠ 43 / 7 ⁠, and ⁠ 43 / 7 ...

  8. Decimal separator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_separator

    In mathematics and computing, a radix point or radix character is a symbol used in the display of numbers to separate the integer part of the value from its fractional part. In English and many other languages (including many that are written right-to-left), the integer part is at the left of the radix point, and the fraction part at the right ...
