Shillings.

Ten times 3 are 30, and 7 are 37-37s. make 1 pound 17 shillings; set down £1 17. This product is the price of 100-Multiply it by 11 and you will have the price of 1100.

Pence, opposite C.

Eleven times 6 are 66-66 pence are 5s. 6d.; set down 6 and carry 5 to the shillings.

Shillings.

Eleven times 7 are 77, and 5 I carried are 82-2 and carry 8-11 times 1 is 11, and 8 are 19-the half of 19 is 9 and 1 over; set the 1 in tens' place of shillings, and carry 9 to the pounds.

Pounds.

Eleven times 1 is 11, and 9 I carried make 20set 20 in the place of pounds.

Thus we have £20 12 6 for the price of 1100 pounds.

Now multiply the price of one pound by 11 and by. 5, to find the price of 55 pounds-add this price to that of 1100 pounds, and you will have the answer. Farthings, opposite A a.

Eleven times 2 are 22-22 farthings make 5d. 2q.; set down 2 and carry 5.

Eleven times 4 are 44, and 5 I carried are 49-49d. make 4s. 1d.; set down 1 in the pence and 4 in the shillings.

Farthings, opposite E.

Five times 2 are 10-10 farthings make 2 pence 2 farthings; set down 2 and carry 2 to the pence.

Five times 1 is 5 and 2 I carried are 7-set down 7 in the pence.

2 the answer for 1155 lbs. Answer in words, Twenty-one pounds thirteen shillings and one penny half-penny.

When an Integer, that is, a whole number, costs so much a pound, what will a hundred weight cost?

RULE.

Multiply the price of one Integer by 7 and by 8, and the second product by 2: the third product will be the price of 112.

NOTE 1st.-A hundred weight Avoirdupois contains 112 pounds; consequently any number being multiplied by 7, and that product by 8, will make a product 56 times the first number; and this second product multiplied by 2, will make a product 112 times greater than the first number.

1X7=7X8=56 and 56×2=112.

Read thus, 1 multiplied by 7 equals 7, multiplied by 8 equals 56; and 56 multiplied by 2 equals 112. NOTE 2nd.-It will make no difference to multiply by 8 first, then by 7.

Pence.

Twice 4 are 8; set down 8 and carry nothingtwice 15 are 30-30s. make 1 pound 10 shillings; set down 10 for shillings, and carry one to the pounds.

Twice 8 are 16, and one I carried makes 17; set down 7 and carry one-twice 4 are 8 and 1 makes 9 .set down 9.

Thus we have a sum of £97 10 8 for the answer.

MULTIPLICATION.

KEY TO CARD No. 20.

Inform the learners that the number to be multiplied is called the Multiplicand.

The number we multiply by, Multiplier, and the result or sum total, the Product.

Let them also know, that the Multiplicand and Multiplier are called Factors: that is, the upper, and lower, factor; and it makes no difference in the Product which number stands uppermost; only place the smallest Factor under for the ease of multiplying.
