Auxiliary fractions observation
I was watching a vedic math YouTube video on the concept of auxiliary fractions and noticed something about the prepended remainders. I am not well educated in mathematics and lack the proper terminology, so I have attached a photo. I'll do my best to explain an example and welcome any insight. Most likely a well known concept, but I'd like to learn more!
Ex: 1/39 = Auxiliary fraction first order 0.1/4 0.102225160401 The prepended remainders 0012214= 10510 AND ((40^6)-1)/399 = 105,025,641 *notice the 105 prepended to the repetend of 1/39. (Also noted that 409510 = 3333334 I've worked out dozens of examples in many other bases and the same is always true. Another example is included in my photo. |
