PROBLEM VII. To gauge and fix a rectangular malt-kiln. As 1 on A: 20.01 on B:: 4.7 on A ; 94.05 on B. EXAM. 3. BY THE PEN. Here 50 x 30 = 1500, the area of the well-hole; and 1500 212 7 inches, the number to be deducted from the length, in order to make an allowance for the well-hole; hence, we have 236 7 = 229 inches, the true length of the kiln; then 229 × 219 2150.42 = 485482150.42 = 22.576 malt bushels, the area required. PROOF. 'Here 236 x 212=50032, the area of both the kiln and the well-hole; and 50032 1500 = 48582, the area of the kiln, in square inches; then 48532 ÷ 2150.42 = 22.568, its area in malt bushels, nearly as before. PROBLEM VIII. To find whether the duty will arise from the cistern, the couch, or the floor. EXAM. 2. Bushels. 69.8 couch-gauge. 418.8 698 111.68 product. Here the number of bushels obtained by multiplying the couch-guage by 1.6, is less than the number of floor bushels; consequently, the charge will arise from the floor. Bushels. 112.6 floor bushels. 56.30 product. Here the neat bushels are 56.3, the number upon which the duty must be charged. Y 2 The Method of tabulating the Wash Still, given in this Example.
