The golden ratio, on the other hand, is the number requiring the most coefficients for each digit. A prominent example of a number not exhibiting this behavior is the golden ratio—sometimes known as the "most irrational" number—whose continued fraction terms are all ones, the smallest possible in canonical form. On average it requires approximately 2.39 continued fraction terms per decimal digit.

Most irrational numbers do not have any periodic or regular behavior in their continued fraction expansion. Nevertheless, Khinchin proved that for almost all real numbers , the (for ) have an astonishing property: their geometric mean tends to a constant (known as Khinchin's constant, ) independent of the value of . Paul Lévy showed that the th root of the denominator of the th convergent of the continued fraction expansion of almost all real numbers approaches an asymptotic limit, approximately 3.27582, which is known as Lévy's constant. Lochs' theorem states that th convergent of the continued fraction expansion of almost all real numbers determines the number to an average accuracy of just over decimal places.
