  2. Divisibility rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divisibility_rule

    The result is the same as the result of 40 divided by 5(40/5 = 8). If the last digit in the number is 5, then the result will be the remaining digits multiplied by two, plus one. For example, the number 125 ends in a 5, so take the remaining digits (12), multiply them by two (12 × 2 = 24), then add one (24 + 1 = 25).

  3. Division (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    In terms of partition, 20 / 5 means the size of each of 5 parts into which a set of size 20 is divided. For example, 20 apples divide into five groups of four apples, meaning that "twenty divided by five is equal to four". This is denoted as 20 / 5 = 4, or ⁠ 20 / 5 ⁠ = 4. [2] In the example, 20 is the dividend, 5 is the divisor, and 4 is ...

  4. Long division - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_division

    Long division. In arithmetic, long division is a standard division algorithm suitable for dividing multi-digit Hindu-Arabic numerals (positional notation) that is simple enough to perform by hand. It breaks down a division problem into a series of easier steps. As in all division problems, one number, called the dividend, is divided by another ...

    The buckling formula: A puzzle involving "colliding billiard balls": is the number of collisions made (in ideal conditions, perfectly elastic with no friction) by an object of mass m initially at rest between a fixed wall and another object of mass b2Nm, when struck by the other object. [1] (.

  6. 104 (number) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/104_(number)

    With eight total divisors where 8 is the fourth largest, 104 is the seventeenth refactorable number. [2] 104 is also the twenty-fifth primitive semiperfect number. [3] The sum of all its divisors is σ (104) = 210, which is the sum of the first twenty nonzero integers, [4] as well as the product of the first four prime numbers (2 × 3 × 5 × 7).

  7. Arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arithmetic

    Arithmetic is the fundamental branch of mathematics that studies numbers and their operations. In particular, it deals with numerical calculations using the arithmetic operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. [1] In a wider sense, it also includes exponentiation, extraction of roots, and logarithm. [2]

    This formula establishes a correspondence between imaginary powers of e and points on the unit circle centred at the origin of the complex plane. Setting φ = π {\displaystyle \varphi =\pi } in Euler's formula results in Euler's identity , celebrated in mathematics due to it containing five important mathematical constants: [ 39 ] [ 40 ] e i ...

  9. Partition function (number theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partition_function_(number...

    In number theory, the partition function p(n) represents the number of possible partitions of a non-negative integer n. For instance, p(4) = 5 because the integer 4 has the five partitions 1 + 1 + 1 + 1, 1 + 1 + 2, 1 + 3, 2 + 2, and 4. No closed-form expression for the partition function is known, but it has both asymptotic expansions that ...
