    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Significant_figures

    Spurious digits that arise from calculations resulting in a higher precision than the original data or a measurement reported with greater precision than the instrument's resolution. A zero after a decimal (e.g., 1.0) is significant, and care should be used when appending such a decimal of zero.

    Here, 29 is greater than 1 cubed, greater than 2 cubed, greater than 3 cubed, but not greater than 4 cubed. The greatest cube it is greater than is 3, so the first digit of the two-digit cube must be 3. Therefore, the cube root of 29791 is 31. Another example: Find the cube root of 456533. The cube root ends in 7.

  5. Scientific notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_notation

    Converting a number from scientific notation to decimal notation, first remove the × 10 n on the end, then shift the decimal separator n digits to the right (positive n) or left (negative n). The number 1.2304 × 10 6 would have its decimal separator shifted 6 digits to the right and become 1,230,400 , while −4.0321 × 10 −3 would have its ...

    Here the 'IEEE 754 double value' resulting of the 15 bit figure is 3.330560653658221E-15, which is rounded by Excel for the 'user interface' to 15 digits 3.33056065365822E-15, and then displayed with 30 decimals digits gets one 'fake zero' added, thus the 'binary' and 'decimal' values in the sample are identical only in display, the values ...

  7. Greater-than sign - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greater-than_sign

    In mathematical writing, the greater-than sign is typically placed between two values being compared and signifies that the first number is greater than the second number. Examples of typical usage include 1.5 > 1 and 1 > −2. The less-than sign and greater-than sign always "point" to the smaller number.

    [e] Every positive decimal expansion easily determines a Dedekind cut: the set of rational numbers that are less than some stage of the expansion. So the real number 0.999... is the set of rational numbers r {\displaystyle r} such that r {\displaystyle r} < 0 , or r {\displaystyle r} < 0.9 , or r {\displaystyle r} < 0.99 , or r {\displaystyle r ...
