...division or finding a square root, may yield results that are not integers (see Activity 3). The real numbers are a wider collection of numbers used in mathematics. A real number is conveniently thought of as a decimal, such as 435.5218 or –29.333344, but not every real number can be written as a decimal of a finite length.

The conversion between wavelength (lambda, λ) and frequency (f) uses the formula: where c is the speed of light in free space (i.e. in a vacuum) which is 3.00 × 108 m s−1 to...
