partial fractions


Every fractional number, i. e. such a rational numberPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath mn that the integer m is not divisible by the integer n, can be decomposed to a sum of partial fractions as follows:

mn=m1p1ν1+m2p2ν2++mtptνt

Here, the pi’s are distinct positive prime numbersMathworldPlanetmath, the νi’s positive integers and the mi’s some integers.  Cf. the partial fractions of expressions.

Examples:

6289=6172
-124=-323+131
1504=-123+3232-2471

How to get the numerators mi for decomposing a fractional number 1n to partial fractions?  First one can take the highest power pν of a prime p which divides the denominator n.  Then  n=pνu,  where  gcd(u,pν)=1.  Euclid’s algorithm gives some integers x and y such that

1=xu+ypν.

Dividing this equation by pνu gives the

1n=1pνu=xpν+yu.

If u has more than one distinct prime factors, a similar procedure can be made for the fraction yu, and so on.

Note.  The numerators  m1, m2, …, mt  in the decomposition are not unique.  E. g., we have also

-124=-1123+431.
