ADDITION OF DENOMINATE NUMBERS.

In the addition of simple numbers we have a uniform decimal scale; in the addition of compound numbers we have a varying scale; apart from this there is no difference in the process of adding.

EXERCISES.

1. What is the sum of 12 lb. 5 oz. 13 pwt., 21 lb. 8 oz. 15 pwt., 13 lb. 7 oz. 10 pwt., 51 lb. 3 oz. 17 pwt.?

The

The scale is 24, 20, 12. We use 20 and 12. The sum of the pwt. is 55. 55 pwt. 2 oz 15 pwt. We write the 15 under the column of pwt. and add the 2 oz. with the column of ounces. sum of the oz. is 25, which equals 2 lb. and 1 oz. We write the 1 oz. under the column of oz. and add the 2 lb. with the column of lb., making 99 lb.
