Or, simpler yet, we may write the last digit of each partial sum in its proper place, and put underneath what there is to carry; thus,

We have seen (page 17) that any number may be resolved into 9's and the sum of its digits. 66745 9's + 28 (6 +6 +7+4 + 5 = 28). 289's 10 (2810). 109+1. So, casting out all the 9's from 66745, leaves a remainder of 1. Casting out

48-12-3 the 9's from 48371, leaves a

remainder of 5. The sum of

all these remainders is 48-9's+12=9+3. The sum 526953

= 9's +30=9's+3, and as this result agrees with the other,

the sum 526953 is in all probability correct.

We may add the remainder 1 with the digits of the second number, the remainder thus obtained with the digits of the third number, and so on. Also, we may omit 9's as we go along; thus,

12, 191 (6+6=12,+7=19. Drop the 9 of 19, also drop 459).

Any number may be resolved into 9's a certain remainder. Let r represent this remainder. Any other number may be resolved into 9's a remainder. Let (read r prime) represent this remainder. The product of the two numbers is made up of 9's + a remainder of r'r; for multiplying out, we have r'×r r+ 9's × 9's, each term except the first one

that the product obtained is correct.

To apply the principle to division, we have only to remember that a dividend == quotient × divisor + remainder.

Perform the following problems, and test the results by casting out the 9's.

FROM PRACTICE TABLE NO. 2. (PAGE 53.)

178. Add 1-13; a-e, f-j, k-o, p-t, u-z.

180. Add 1-25; a-h, i-q, r-z.

181. Add the whole of Practice Table No. 3.

Keep the

record of what there is to carry each time. Test the result by adding downward instead of upward, and also by casting out the 9's.
