CASE I. If the given sum be pounds only, multiply by 8, and divide by 3, for dollars; if any remains, consider it as a decimal, and divide for cents and mills; or, to the product by 8, annex two ciphers, if you would have the cents, three if you would have the mills, and divide by 3.

CASE II. If pounds and shillings; or pounds, shillings, and pence; or shillings and pence; or pence only are given : reduce the whole to pence, divide these pence by 9, and add the quotient to the pence; the sum will be cents; if any remains after dividing the pence by 9, it will be so many mills, and decimals of a mill over. CASE III. If there are farthings in the given sum, after reducing it to pence, annex the farthings in decimal parts of a penny thus will be,25; 1,5; 4,75

of a penny.

To change federal money to the currency of New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Maryland.

CASE I. If dollars only are given, multiply by 3, and divide the product by 8 for pounds; if any remains, multiply it by 20, and divide the product by 8, for shillings; if there be any then remaining, multiply it by 12, and divide by 8 for pence; if there is still a remainder, multiply it by 4, and divide by 8 for farthings.

CASE II. If the given sum be dollars and cents, divide them by 10, and subtract the quotient, the remainder is pence; if any remain after dividing by 10, it will be decimals of a penny; which, if multiplied by 4, and the same number of decimals pointed off, gives farthings, if any be at the left of the point.

CASE III. If dollars, cents and mills, or cents and mills, or mills only are given.

Subtract a tenth (as in Case II.) of the whole in mills, from it; if the remainder is mills only, they are decimals of a penny to be multiplied by 4, &c. as in Case II. for farthings; but, if therearects, they are so many pence.
