    The ratio of width to height of standard-definition television. In mathematics, a ratio (/ ˈ r eɪ ʃ (i) oʊ /) shows how many times one number contains another. For example, if there are eight oranges and six lemons in a bowl of fruit, then the ratio of oranges to lemons is eight to six (that is, 8:6, which is equivalent to the ratio 4:3).

  3. Irrational number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irrational_number

    The ratio of the hypotenuse to a leg is represented by c:b. Assume a, b, and c are in the smallest possible terms (i.e. they have no common factors). By the Pythagorean theorem: c 2 = a 2 +b 2 = b 2 +b 2 = 2b 2. (Since the triangle is isosceles, a = b). Since c 2 = 2b 2, c 2 is divisible by 2, and therefore even. Since c 2 is even, c must be even.

    For example, the divisor 3 may be subtracted up to 6 times from the dividend 20, before the remainder becomes negative: 20 − 3 − 3 − 3 − 3 − 3 − 3 ≥ 0, while 20 − 3 − 3 − 3 − 3 − 3 − 3 − 3 < 0. In this sense, a quotient is the integer part of the ratio of two numbers. [9]

    Unit fractions can also be expressed using negative exponents, as in 2 −1, which represents 1/2, and 22, which represents 1/(2 2) or 1/4. A dyadic fraction is a common fraction in which the denominator is a power of two , e.g. ⁠ 1 / 8 ⁠ = ⁠ 1 / 2 3 ⁠ .
