Side 228 - To express that the ratio of A to B is equal to the ratio of C to D, we write the quantities thus : A : B : : C : D ; and read, A is to B as C to D.
Side 136 - The result of this operation, 1184, contains twice the product of the tens by the units, plus the square of the units.
Side 229 - Quantities are said to be in proportion by alternation, or alternately, when antecedent is compared- with antecedent and consequent with consequent. Thus, if we have the proportion 3 : 6 : : 8 : 16, the alternate proportion would be 3 : 8 : : 6 : 16. QUEST. — 147. When are three quantities proportional ? What is the middle one called ? — 148. When are quantities said to be in proportion by inversion, or inversely?
Side 155 - Divide the coefficient of the dividend by the coefficient of the divisor.
Side 231 - AC and by clearing the equation of fractions we have BO=AD; that is, Of four proportional quantities, the product of the two extremes is equal to the product of the two means.
Side 232 - If the product of two quantities is equal to the product of two other quantities, two of them may be made the extremes, and the other two the means of a proportion.
Side 138 - Multiply the divisor, thus augmented, by the last figure of the root, and subtract the product from the dividend, and to the remainder bring down the next period for a new dividend.
Side 271 - A person has four casks, the second of which being filled from the first, leaves the first four-sevenths full. The third being filled from the second, leaves it one-fourth full, and when the third is emptied into the fourth, it is found to fill only nine-sixteenths of it.
