Σελίδα 16 - Operations with Fractions A) To change a mixed number to an improper fraction, simply multiply the whole number by the denominator of the fraction and add the numerator.
Σελίδα 19 - When mixed numbers and whole numbers are to be added, add the fractional parts of the mixed numbers separately, and if the resulting fraction is an improper fraction, reduce it to a whole or mixed number. Next, add all the whole numbers, including the one obtained from the addition of the fractional parts, and annex to their sum the fraction of the mixed number obtained from reducing the improper fraction.

Σελίδα 83 - Gk. i(dyavov, from t£, hex, six, + yavla, flonia, angle). A geometric figure of six sides. When the sides and angles are respectively equal, the hexagon is said to be regular. If a regular hexagon is inscribed in a circle, each side is equal to the radius of the circle, and by joining the angular points to the centre of the circle six equilateral triangles are formed. Hence the perimeter of the circle may be divided into six equal parts by laying off in succession six chorda, each equal to the radius.
