Often replaced by a horizontal bar. For example, 3 / 2 or . 2. Denotes a quotient structure. For example, quotient set, quotient group, quotient category, etc. 3. In number theory and field theory, / denotes a field extension, where F is an extension field of the field E. 4.
A vinculum can indicate a line segment where A and B are the endpoints: ¯. A vinculum can indicate the repetend of a repeating decimal value: . 1 ⁄ 7 = 0. 142857 = 0.1428571428571428571...
Corner quotes, also called “Quine quotes”; for quasi-quotation, i.e. quoting specific context of unspecified (“variable”) expressions; [4] also used for denoting Gödel number; [5] for example “āGā” denotes the Gödel number of G. (Typographical note: although the quotes appears as a “pair” in unicode (231C and 231D), they ...
6 are red, and; 4 are yellow, then the ratio of red to white to yellow cars is 6 to 2 to 4. The ratio of yellow cars to white cars is 4 to 2 and may be expressed as 4:2 or 2:1. A ratio is often converted to a fraction when it is expressed as a ratio to the whole. In the above example, the ratio of yellow cars to all the cars on the lot is 4:12 ...

An overline, overscore, or overbar, is a typographical feature of a horizontal line drawn immediately above the text. In old mathematical notation , an overline was called a vinculum , a notation for grouping symbols which is expressed in modern notation by parentheses, though it persists for symbols under a radical sign.
[6] In mathematics, the triple bar is sometimes used as a symbol of identity or an equivalence relation (although not the only one; other common choices include ~ and ≈). [7] [8] Particularly, in geometry, it may be used either to show that two figures are congruent or that they are identical. [9]
The most common superscript digits (1, 2, and 3) were included in ISO-8859-1 and were therefore carried over into those code points in the Latin-1 range of Unicode. The remainder were placed along with basic arithmetical symbols, and later some Latin subscripts, in a dedicated block at U+2070 to U+209F.
