Σελίδα 83 - ... arithmetic. It was shown in arithmetic, that a fraction properly expresses a quotient. Algebraic fractions are subject to precisely the same rules as fractions in arithmetic. Many of the operations are more easily performed on algebraic fractions. In these, as in arithmetic, it must be kept in mind, that the denominator shows into how many parts a unit is divided ; and the numerator shows how many of those parts are used ; or the denominator shows into how many parts the numerator is divided....

The root will be doubled, if the right hand figure of the last divisor be doubled. If it happens that the divisor is not contained in the dividend when the right hand figure is rejected, a zero must be written in the root, and also at the right of the divisor ; and the next figures must be brought down, and then a new trial made.
