Then the gradient or slope is a fraction. That is no big deal.
You can get any whole number as the answer. That is because there are infinitely many numbers which you can divide and they will give rise to different numbers for the answers.
Rise over run
The slope is the rise over the run, like a fraction. Rise is the numerator, run is the denominator. That gives you a fraction. Then just divide if you want a number.
Divide the height of the ramp by the length of the ramp (rise over run).
The rise of a step should be around 7". When computing the number of rise units, a carpenter will divide the total rise by the number 7. This will give a starting point in determining the number of individual step risers.

because, when you go, lets say, (2,3), and the line is on the 2, you change the second number, not the 2, but the 3.The slope of a line is the ratio of rise over run. On a vertical line you have an infinite rise over zero run. Your slope would be infinity/0. As you know, you cannot divide by 0, so the slop is undefined.
The slope is the magnitude of the line upwards or downwards, commonly referred to as "rise over run". The rise is how much the graph goes up in a certain distance, and the run is how much the graph goes over horizontally that same distance. To find the slope in that situation, you have to divide the rise by the run.
At first, the Fujiwara took over the emperor, then slowly took over the whole throne and their rule lasted for about 300 years.
If you're talking about slope, it is rise over run. But why is it not the other way run over rise?
Divide
Rise over run ! Rise _____ run
Answer: divide your y axis by your x axis to get slope. Answer: If you plot an x-y graph in standard position, you have to calculate (difference in y-coordinates) / (difference in x-coordinates). "Rise over run" is an alternative way of saying this.
