2. Continued fraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continued_fraction

   Continued fraction. A finite regular continued fraction, where is a non-negative integer, is an integer, and is a positive integer, for . In mathematics, a continued fraction is an expression obtained through an iterative process of representing a number as the sum of its integer part and the reciprocal of another number, then writing this ...

3. Cross-multiplication - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-multiplication

   Cross-multiplication. In mathematics, specifically in elementary arithmetic and elementary algebra, given an equation between two fractions or rational expressions, one can cross-multiply to simplify the equation or determine the value of a variable. The method is also occasionally known as the "cross your heart" method because lines resembling ...

4. Greedy algorithm for Egyptian fractions - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greedy_algorithm_for...

   In mathematics, the greedy algorithm for Egyptian fractions is a greedy algorithm, first described by Fibonacci, for transforming rational numbers into Egyptian fractions. An Egyptian fraction is a representation of an irreducible fraction as a sum of distinct unit fractions, such as 5 6 = 1 2 + 1 3. As the name indicates, these representations ...

5. Solving quadratic equations with continued fractions - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solving_quadratic...

   Solving quadratic equations with continued fractions. In mathematics, a quadratic equation is a polynomial equation of the second degree. The general form is. where a ≠ 0. The quadratic equation on a number can be solved using the well-known quadratic formula, which can be derived by completing the square. That formula always gives the roots ...

6. 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 ...

7. Heaviside cover-up method - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heaviside_cover-up_method

   Method. Separation of a fractional algebraic expression into partial fractions is the reverse of the process of combining fractions by converting each fraction to the lowest common denominator (LCD) and adding the numerators. This separation can be accomplished by the Heaviside cover-up method, another method for determining the coefficients of ...
