Σελίδα 101 - The Least Common Multiple of two or more numbers is the least number that...
Σελίδα 179 - The coefficient of the first term of the expansion is unity ; of the second, the exponent of the required power ; and that of any other term may be found by multiplying the coefficient of the preceding term by the exponent of the first letter in that term, and dividing the product by the exponent of the second letter + 1.
