    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number_line

    On the number line, the distance between two points is the unit length if and only if the difference of the represented numbers equals 1. Other choices are possible. One of the most common choices is the logarithmic scale , which is a representation of the positive numbers on a line, such that the distance of two points is the unit length, if ...

  4. Irreducible fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irreducible_fraction

    The final result, ⁠ 4 / 3 ⁠, is an irreducible fraction because 4 and 3 have no common factors other than 1. The original fraction could have also been reduced in a single step by using the greatest common divisor of 90 and 120, which is 30. As 120 ÷ 30 = 4, and 90 ÷ 30 = 3, one gets = Which method is faster "by hand" depends on the ...
