    In statistics, the 68–95–99.7 rule, also known as the empirical rule, and sometimes abbreviated 3sr or 3 σ, is a shorthand used to remember the percentage of values that lie within an interval estimate in a normal distribution: approximately 68%, 95%, and 99.7% of the values lie within one, two, and three standard deviations of the mean ...

    Decimals are also to be used instead of fractions, as in "3.5 percent of the gain" and not "3 + 1 ⁄ 2 percent of the gain". However the titles of bonds issued by governments and other issuers use the fractional form, e.g. "3 + 1 ⁄ 2 % Unsecured Loan Stock 2032 Series 2".

  4. Guess 2/3 of the average - Wikipedia

    Therefore, any guess above ⁠44 + 4 / 9 ⁠ is weakly dominated for every player since no player will guess above ⁠66 + 2 / 3 ⁠, and ⁠ 2 / 3 ⁠ of ⁠66 + 2 / 3 ⁠ is ⁠44 + 4 / 9 ⁠. This process will continue as this logic is continually applied, If the same group of people play the game consistently, with each step, the highest ...

    As for fractions, the simplest form is considered that in which the numbers in the ratio are the smallest possible integers. Thus, the ratio 40:60 is equivalent in meaning to the ratio 2:3, the latter being obtained from the former by dividing both quantities by 20. Mathematically, we write 40:60 = 2:3, or equivalently 40:60∷2:3.
