  2. Divisibility rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divisibility_rule

    And that is actually the same as subtracting 7×10 n (clearly a multiple of 7) from 10×10 n. Similarly, when you turn a 3 into a 2 in the following decimal position, you are turning 30×10 n into 2×10 n, which is the same as subtracting 30×10 n −28×10 n, and this is again subtracting a multiple of 7. The same reason applies for all the ...

  3. Summation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Summation

    The summation of an explicit sequence is denoted as a succession of additions. For example, summation of [1, 2, 4, 2] is denoted 1 + 2 + 4 + 2, and results in 9, that is, 1 + 2 + 4 + 2 = 9. Because addition is associative and commutative, there is no need for parentheses, and the result is the same irrespective of the order of the summands ...

  4. Multiple (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    This is because there are integers that 7 may be multiplied by to reach the values of 14, 49, 0 and −21, while there are no such integers for 3 and −6. Each of the products listed below, and in particular, the products for 3 and −6, is the only way that the relevant number can be written as a product of 7 and another real number:

  5. Harshad number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harshad_number

    The number 19 is not a harshad number in base 10, because the sum of the digits 1 and 9 is 10, and 19 is not divisible by 10. In base 10, every natural number expressible in the form 9R n a n, where the number R n consists of n copies of the single digit 1, n > 0, and a n is a positive integer less than 10 n and multiple of n, is a harshad ...

  6. Idempotence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idempotence

    Pressing the On button (green) is an idempotent operation, since it has the same effect whether done once or multiple times. Likewise, pressing Off is idempotent. Idempotence ( UK : / ˌ ɪ d ɛ m ˈ p oʊ t ən s / , [ 1 ] US : / ˈ aɪ d ə m -/ ) [ 2 ] is the property of certain operations in mathematics and computer science whereby they can ...

  8. Least common multiple - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Least_common_multiple

    A multiple of a number is the product of that number and an integer. For example, 10 is a multiple of 5 because 5 × 2 = 10, so 10 is divisible by 5 and 2. Because 10 is the smallest positive integer that is divisible by both 5 and 2, it is the least common multiple of 5 and 2. By the same principle, 10 is the least common multiple of −5 and ...

  9. Addition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Addition

    Summation describes the addition of arbitrarily many numbers, usually more than just two. It includes the idea of the sum of a single number, which is itself, and the empty sum, which is zero. [93] An infinite summation is a delicate procedure known as a series. [94] Counting a finite set is equivalent to summing 1 over the set.
