Since 2s. is part of a l. the decimal of 2s. is 1; wherefore any quantity being given at 2s. P, the price is found in pounds and decimal parts of a pound, by separating the units figure of the given quantity from the rest for a decimal, the value of which decimal in shillings is known by inspection. Examples. 7. Let it be required to find the value of 278 yards at 2s. f yard. By pointing off the lowest figure 8 for a decimal, I find the amount 1.27.8 which is 27.8 known to be equal to 277. 16s. II. Consequently if the price be a multiple of 2s. (viz. any even number of shillings) the amount of 2s, being first found in pounds and decimal parts as above, and that amount multiplied by the number which expresseth how often 2s. is contained in the given price, the product will be the amount required in pounds and decimal parts of 11. &c. What cost 256 gallons of shrub, at 6s. gallon? Let the Examples of Chap. I. be done by this Rule. III. If the price be, an aliquot part of 2 shillings, find the amount at 2s. and divide it by the denominator of the part. At Sd. b. what cost 326 . ? 8d. is -32.6 1. s. d. £.10.866 10 17 4 Let the examples of Chap. II. § 3 be done by this: IV. If the price be an aliquant part divide it into aliquot V. If the price be pounds and shillings, or pounds, shillings and pence Reduce the lesser denominations to the decimal of a pound, and multiply, the quantity thereby. VI. If the quantity likewise be of divers denominations, reduce the lesser denominations to a decimal of that whereof the price is given. Se |
