It is often denoted using the percent sign (%), [1] although the abbreviations pct., pct, and sometimes pc are also used. [2] A percentage is a dimensionless number (pure number), primarily used for expressing ...

  3. Division (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_(mathematics)

    In terms of partition, 20 / 5 means the size of each of 5 parts into which a set of size 20 is divided. For example, 20 apples divide into five groups of four apples, meaning that "twenty divided by five is equal to four". This is denoted as 20 / 5 = 4, or ⁠ 20 / 5 ⁠ = 4. In the example, 20 is the dividend, 5 is the divisor, and 4 is the ...

  5. Division by zero - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_by_zero

    Division by zero. The reciprocal function y = ⁠ 1 x⁠. As x approaches zero from the right, y tends to positive infinity. As x approaches zero from the left, y tends to negative infinity. In mathematics, division by zero, division where the divisor (denominator) is zero, is a unique and problematic special case.

  6. Divisibility rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divisibility_rule

    The basic rule for divisibility by 4 is that if the number formed by the last two digits in a number is divisible by 4, the original number is divisible by 4; [2] [3] this is because 100 is divisible by 4 and so adding hundreds, thousands, etc. is simply adding another number that is divisible by 4.

  7. Intelligence quotient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intelligence_quotient

    An intelligence quotient ( IQ) is a total score derived from a set of standardised tests or subtests designed to assess human intelligence. [1] The abbreviation "IQ" was coined by the psychologist William Stern for the German term Intelligenzquotient, his term for a scoring method for intelligence tests at University of Breslau he advocated in ...

  8. Googol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Googol

    Properties. A googol is approximately 70! ( factorial of 70). [a] Using an integral, binary numeral system, one would need 333 bits to represent a googol, i.e., 1 googol = ≈ 2 332.19280949. However, a googol is well within the maximum bounds of an IEEE 754 double-precision floating point type, but without full precision in the mantissa.

    The "share" is lower than the count because for each article it is based on the number of nationals who have contributed, divided by the total number of contributors. In many cases the "share" will be much lower than the "count" because the "count" includes articles published by institutions which may have only a very few members of the ...
