hányadosai

Hányados is a mathematical term in Hungarian that denotes the quotient obtained by dividing one number by another. The word hányadosai is the plural possessive form, meaning “its quotients” or “the quotients” associated with a set or context. In practice, hányados is used to refer to the result of a division operation, not the relationship itself.

In arithmetic, if a and b are numbers with b not equal to zero, the hányados is a/b. This quotient can be a real number, a rational number, or, in the context of integer division, an integer quotient depending on the rules being applied. For example, dividing 7 by 3 gives the hányados 7/3 ≈ 2.333…, while integer division might yield a quotient of 2 with a remainder of 1, depending on the convention used. The concept plays a central role in defining fractions and in many applications of algebra and analysis.

A hányados is distinct from an arány (ratio). A ratio expresses a relationship between two quantities, often in the form a:b, whereas a hányados is the result of performing the division operation itself. The term hányadosai can be used when describing the quotients derived from multiple divisions, such as the quotients of a set of number pairs.
