  2. Mass fraction (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_fraction_(chemistry)

    Mass fraction can also be expressed, with a denominator of 100, as percentage by mass (in commercial contexts often called percentage by weight, abbreviated wt.% or % w/w; see mass versus weight). It is one way of expressing the composition of a mixture in a dimensionless size ; mole fraction (percentage by moles , mol%) and volume fraction ...

  3. Percentage solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percentage_solution

    Percentage solution may refer to: Mass fraction (or "% w/w" or "wt.%"), for percent mass; Volume fraction (or "% v/v" or "vol.%"), volume concentration, for percent volume "Mass/volume percentage" (or "% m/v") in biology, for mass per unit volume; incorrectly used to denote mass concentration (chemistry). See usage in biology

  4. Birthday problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birthday_problem

    The probability of any two people not having the same birthday is ⁠ 364 / 365 ⁠. In a room containing n people, there are (n 2) = ⁠ n(n − 1) / 2 ⁠ pairs of people, i.e. (n 2) events. The probability of no two people sharing the same birthday can be approximated by assuming that these events are independent and hence by multiplying ...

  5. Baker percentage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baker_percentage

    The total or sum of the baker's percentages is called the formula percentage. The sum of the ingredient masses is called the formula mass (or formula "weight"). Here are some interesting calculations: The flour's mass times the formula percentage equals the formula mass: [11]

  6. Atomic ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_ratio

    For example, the atomic percent of hydrogen in water (H 2 O) is at.% H 2 O = 2/3 x 100 ≈ 66.67% , while the atomic ratio of hydrogen to oxygen is A H:O = 2:1 . Isotopes

  7. Human body weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_body_weight

    Human body weight is a person's mass or weight.. Strictly speaking, body weight is the measurement of mass without items located on the person. Practically though, body weight may be measured with clothes on, but without shoes or heavy accessories such as mobile phones and wallets, and using manual or digital weighing scales.

  8. Percentile rank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percentile_rank

    The figure illustrates the percentile rank computation and shows how the 0.5 × F term in the formula ensures that the percentile rank reflects a percentage of scores less than the specified score. For example, for the 10 scores shown in the figure, 60% of them are below a score of 4 (five less than 4 and half of the two equal to 4) and 95% are ...

  9. Attributable fraction for the population - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attributable_fraction_for...

    For example, in 1953 Levin's paper estimated that lung cancer has a relative risk of 3.6–13.4 in smokers compared to non-smokers, and that the proportion of the population exposed to smoking was 0.5–0.96, resulting in the high AF p value of 0.56–0.92. [6]
