ADDITION OF DENOMINATE NUMBERS.

§ 92. Addition of denominate numbers, like that of simple numbers, teaches how to express the value of several numbers by a single one, which is called their sum.

RULE.

I. Set down the numbers to be added so that all the denominations of the same kind shall stand in the same column.

II. Begin with the column of the lowest denomination, and add it up as in whole numbers.

III. Then consider how many units of this denomination make one unit of the next higher, and divide the sum by this number. Write down the remainder under the units of its kind, and carry the quotient to the next column, as in addition of simple numbers.

IV. Proceed in the same way for all the columns to the last, and set down the entire sum of the last column.

§ 93. The proof is the same as in the addition of simple numbers.

1 the sum in the column of pence to be 30;

hillings and 6 pence: setting down the 6

pence and carrying 2 to the shillings, we find 41 in the column of shillings; that is, £2 and 1 shilling. Set down 1 shilling, and carry the 2 to the pounds; their sum is 189.

§ 94. NOTE.-In simple numbers 10 units of any one of the columns, make one unit of the next left hand column, § 10. We therefore carry one for every 10. But in denominate numbers the higher denominations are formed differently. For example, 12 pence make 1 shilling, the unit of the next higher denomination; and 20 shillings make 1 pound. In passing from pence to shillings, we must therefore carry 1 for every 12, and one for every 20 in passing from shillings to pounds. And in general, we must carry 1 for so many units of the lower de nomination, as make one unit of the next higher.

§ 92. What is addition of denominate numbers? How do you set down the numbers for addition? Where do you be gin to add? How do you add the several columns ?

93. How do you prove addition?

94. Why do you carry one for every ten in addition of simple numbers? For how many do you carry one in passing from pence to shillings ?-from shillings to pounds? În general, for how many do you carry one?

Adding up the grains, we find their sum to be 47; that is, 1 pwt. and 23 gr. setting down 23, and carrying 1 to the pennyweights, we find their sum to be 42: that is, 2 oz. and 2 pwt. Carrying 2 to the ounces, we find their sum to be 29; that is, 2 lb. and 5 oz. carrying 2 to the pounds and adding, we find their sum to be 350.
