Heya User,
=_= 'p' generally refers to a prime..
^_^ Well 0_0 above was just an awareness fact :p
Let's see what we can do with your qn.
--> 0.2316 = [ 2316 / 10000 ] = [ 579 / 2500 ]
Guess, we can't further simplify the fraction >_< ..
Hence, we've got the minimal value of 'p' as --> '579'
--> Now, 2500 = 2² * 5⁴ √√
Hence, 'm' = 2 || 'n' = 4 √√
And done we are √√ ...
Minimum possible values for 'm' / 'n' / 'o' / 'p' are --> '2' / '4'/ =_= / '579' respectively...
