    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 ...

    For example, the numerators of fractions with common denominators can simply be added, such that + = and that <, since each fraction has the common denominator 12. Without computing a common denominator, it is not obvious as to what 5 12 + 11 18 {\displaystyle {\frac {5}{12}}+{\frac {11}{18}}} equals, or whether 5 12 {\displaystyle {\frac {5 ...

    This produces a sequence of approximations, all of which are rational numbers, and these converge to the starting number as a limit. This is the (infinite) continued fraction representation of the number. Examples of continued fraction representations of irrational numbers are: √ 19 = [4;2,1,3,1,2,8,2,1,3,1,2,8,...] (sequence A010124 in the ...

    The result is an equation with no fractions. The simplified equation is not entirely equivalent to the original. For when we substitute y = 0 and z = 0 in the last equation, both sides simplify to 0, so we get 0 = 0 , a mathematical truth.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Similarity_measure

    Higher scores are given to more-similar characters, and lower or negative scores for dissimilar characters. Nucleotide similarity matrices are used to align nucleic acid sequences. Because there are only four nucleotides commonly found in DNA ( Adenine (A), Cytosine (C), Guanine (G) and Thymine (T)), nucleotide similarity matrices are much ...
