rationalFractionalPrecision
rationalFractionalPrecision(
value):number
Defined in: packages/math-numbers/src/rational/rational-fractional-precision.ts:19
Decimal places in the exact expansion, or Infinity when it never terminates
— which happens exactly when the reduced denominator has a prime factor that
ten does not.
Where it does terminate the count is max(v₂, v₅) of the denominator, not
their sum: scaling by a power of ten supplies a two and a five at once, so
the scarcer factor rides along with the other rather than costing a place of
its own. 3/50 is 0.06 — two places, from 2¹·5², not three.
