About this deal
Great! We obtained the number divisible by 7, so it means that our original number, 13,468 is also divisible by 7. There are many rules of divisibility that greatly assist one in finding factors by hand. The most often used ones are:
The Automatic Computing Engine (ACE) Pilot Machine which was developed at the National Physical Laboratory as the trial model of Turing’s pioneering ACE design. The ACE was one of the first electronic stored-program digital computers. And there you have it! Two different ways to convert 23/50 to a percentage. Both are pretty straightforward and easy to do, but I personally prefer the convert to decimal method as it takes less steps.
Reduce 23/50 to lowest terms
Multiply them successively by the digits 1, 3, 2, 6, 4, 5. Repeat or shorten this sequence to the necessary length. So in our case, we get: In maths, known facts are calculations that we know the answer to (or that could be solved mentally) and which are then used to help find the answer to another calculation. If you want to practice, grab yourself a pen, a pad, and a calculator and try to convert a few fractions to a percentage yourself. We can also work this out in a simpler way by first converting the fraction 23/50 to a decimal. To do that, we simply divide the numerator by the denominator:
Technical drawings for the British Bombe, the machine specified by Turing and one of the primary tools used to break Enigma-enciphered messages during WWII.

Long multiplication means you're doing multiplication by hand. The traditional method, or Standard Algorithm, involves multiplying numbers and lining up results according to place value. These are the steps to do long multiplication by hand: Here's the little secret you can use to instantly transform any fraction to a decimal: Simply divide the numerator by the denominator: Prime factorization is an extension of factorization in which all the factors are prime numbers. For example, suppose we want the prime factorization of 48. The factors of 48 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 48. Notice those are not all prime numbers, so we have to break it down further. When completing the process, we get 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3. Although 1 is a factor, many mathematicians now do not consider 1 to be a prime number. The prime factorization calculator is a handy tool for obtaining these factors.
