Σελίδα viii - Find two numbers such that, when the greater is divided by the less, the quotient is 4, and the remainder 3 ; and when the sum of the two numbers is increased by 38, and the result divided by the greater of the two numbers, the quotient is 2 and the remainder 2," is much simplified by the use of letters to represent the unknown numbers.
Σελίδα 145 - The sum of the two digits of a number is 6, and if the number be divided by the sum of the digits the quotient is 4.
Σελίδα 45 - Divide the first term of the dividend by the first term of the divisor, and write the result as the first term of the quotient.
