   Thus, it is often useful to convert repeating decimals into fractions. A conventional way to indicate a repeating decimal is to place a bar (known as a vinculum) over the digits that repeat, for example 0. 789 = 0.789789789... For repeating patterns that begin immediately after the decimal point, the result of the conversion is the fraction ...

3. Fixed-point arithmetic - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixed-point_arithmetic

   A fixed-point representation of a fractional number is essentially an integer that is to be implicitly multiplied by a fixed scaling factor. For example, the value 1.23 can be stored in a variable as the integer value 1230 with implicit scaling factor of 1/1000 (meaning that the last 3 decimal digits are implicitly assumed to be a decimal fraction), and the value 1 230 000 can be represented ...

   In order to convert a rational number represented as a fraction into decimal form, one may use long division. For example, consider the rational number ⁠ 5 / 74 ⁠: 0.0 675 74 ) 5.00000 4.44 560 518 420 370 500 etc. Observe that at each step we have a remainder; the successive remainders displayed above are 56, 42, 50.

5. Decimal representation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_representation

   The decimal representation represents the infinite sum : Every nonnegative real number has at least one such representation; it has two such representations (with if ) if and only if one has a trailing infinite sequence of 0, and the other has a trailing infinite sequence of 9. For having a one-to-one correspondence between nonnegative real ...

6. Decimal - Wikipedia

   The decimal numeral system (also called the base-ten positional numeral system and denary / ˈdiːnəri / [ 1] or decanary) is the standard system for denoting integer and non-integer numbers. It is the extension to non-integer numbers ( decimal fractions) of the Hindu–Arabic numeral system. The way of denoting numbers in the decimal system ...

7. Octal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octal

   Octal ( base 8) is a numeral system with eight as the base . In the decimal system, each place is a power of ten. For example: In the octal system, each place is a power of eight. For example: By performing the calculation above in the familiar decimal system, we see why 112 in octal is equal to in decimal.
