Real number In mathematics‚ a real number is a value that represents a quantity along a continuum‚ such as 5 (an integer)‚ 3/4 (a rational number that is not an integer)‚ 8.6 (a rational number expressed in decimal representation)‚ and π (3.1415926535...‚ an irrational number). As a subset of the real numbers‚ the integers‚ such as 5‚ express discrete rather than continuous quantities. Complex numbers include real numbers as a special case. Real numbers can be divided into rational numbers‚ such

In mathematics‚ a real number is a value that represents a quantity along a continuous line. The real numbers include all the rational numbers‚ such as the integer −5 and the fraction 4/3‚ and all the irrational numbers such as √2 (1.41421356... the square root of two‚ an irrational algebraic number) and π (3.14159265...‚ a transcendental number). Real numbers can be thought of as points on an infinitely long line called the number line or real line‚ where the points corresponding to integers are

SUSPENDED SOLIDS 1.0 OBJECTIVE This objective of this experiment is to determine the quantity of suspended solids in polluted water samples. 2.0 INTRODUCTION Water quality is vitally important in our daily life. However‚ due to water pollution‚ the quality of water is questionable for safe usage. In order to determine water quality‚ one of the indicator and measurement that can be used is by suspended solids (SS). Suspended solids is one type of physical water-quality measurement.

A rational number is a number that can be written as a ratio of two integers. The decimal of a rational number will either repeat or terminate. There is a way to tell in advance whether a rational number’s decimal representation will repeat or terminate. When trying to find a pattern in the relationship between rational numbers and their decimals‚ it is best to start with a list. A random list of rational numbers and their decimal values was made in order to find a pattern. The list included ½‚ 5/6
