Derivation

  1. Initial program 62.0

    \[\frac{x - lo}{hi - lo}\]
  2. Using strategy rm

  3. Applied div-sub62.0

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{x}{hi - lo} - \frac{lo}{hi - lo}}\]

  4. Taylor expanded around 0 52.0

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{1}\]

  5. Final simplification52.0

    \[\leadsto 1\]
