What does IPv4 /32 (1 IPv4) and IPv6 bloc /48 mean?

I'm a late bloomer to server side technologies. Could someone explain/link me to what I need to read about this?

While ordering a dedicated server, I saw these listed. What exactly do these mean? "IPv4 /32 (1 IPv4) and IPv6 bloc /48"? I dont think they're 32 individual IPv4 addresses for public use. What are these?

Also, what exactly are failover IPs? Are they just additional IPv4 addresses that can be publicly assigned on my nameserver?

I'd love to read 'The Manual', if someone can point me to what page this is at.
