   A simple fraction (also known as a common fraction or vulgar fraction, where vulgar is Latin for "common") is a rational number written as a / b or ⁠ ⁠, where a and b are both integers. [ 9] As with other fractions, the denominator ( b) cannot be zero. Examples include ⁠ 1 2 ⁠, − ⁠ 8 5 ⁠, ⁠ −8 5 ⁠, and ⁠ 8 −5 ⁠.

3. Egyptian fraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egyptian_fraction

   An Egyptian fraction is a finite sum of distinct unit fractions, such as That is, each fraction in the expression has a numerator equal to 1 and a denominator that is a positive integer, and all the denominators differ from each other. The value of an expression of this type is a positive rational number ; for instance the Egyptian fraction ...

4. Algebraic fraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_fraction

   A simple fraction contains no fraction either in its numerator or its denominator. A fraction is in lowest terms if the only factor common to the numerator and the denominator is 1. An expression which is not in fractional form is an integral expression. An integral expression can always be written in fractional form by giving it the denominator 1.

5. Irreducible fraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irreducible_fraction

   An irreducible fraction (or fraction in lowest terms, simplest form or reduced fraction) is a fraction in which the numerator and denominator are integers that have no other common divisors than 1 (and −1, when negative numbers are considered). [ 1] In other words, a fraction ⁠a b⁠ is irreducible if and only if a and b are coprime, that ...

   Michael Stifel published the following method in 1544. [3] [4] Consider the sequence of mixed numbers,,,, … with = + +.To calculate a Pythagorean triple, take any term of this sequence and convert it to an improper fraction (for mixed number , the corresponding improper fraction is ).

7. Duodecimal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duodecimal

   The duodecimal system, also known as base twelve or dozenal, is a positional numeral system using twelve as its base.In duodecimal, the number twelve is denoted "10", meaning 1 twelve and 0 units; in the decimal system, this number is instead written as "12" meaning 1 ten and 2 units, and the string "10" means ten.

8. Partial fraction decomposition - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partial_fraction_decomposition

   Partial fraction decomposition. In algebra, the partial fraction decomposition or partial fraction expansion of a rational fraction (that is, a fraction such that the numerator and the denominator are both polynomials) is an operation that consists of expressing the fraction as a sum of a polynomial (possibly zero) and one or several fractions ...

9. Periodic continued fraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_continued_fraction

   Such a quadratic irrational may also be written in another form with a square-root of a square-free number (for example (3+ √ 2)/2) as explained for quadratic irrationals. By considering the complete quotients of periodic continued fractions, Euler was able to prove that if x is a regular periodic continued fraction, then x is a quadratic ...
