returns the product of this number and the argument. if the argument is a decimal, the receiver will be converted into a form suitable for multiplying against a decimal, and then multiplied. if the argument is neither a Rational nor a Decimal, it tries to call asRational, and if that fails it signals a condition.
returns the addition of this number and the argument. if the argument is a decimal, the receiver will be converted into a form suitable for addition against a decimal, and then added. if the argument is neither a Rational nor a Decimal, it tries to call asRational, and if that fails it signals a condition.
returns the difference between this number and the argument. if the argument is a decimal, the receiver will be converted into a form suitable for subtracting against a decimal, and then subtracted. if the argument is neither a Rational nor a Decimal, it tries to call asRational, and if that fails it signals a condition.
returns the quotient of this number and the argument. if the division is not exact, it will return a Ratio.
compares this number against the argument, returning -1, 0 or 1 based on which one is larger. if the argument is a decimal, the receiver will be converted into a form suitable for comparing against a decimal, and then compared - it's not specified whether this will actually call Decimal#<=> or not. if the argument is neither a Rational nor a Decimal, it tries to call asRational, and if that doesn't work it returns nil.
compares this number against the argument, true if this number is the same, otherwise false
