 Hence, if a given number contains a decimal, we separate it into periods of three figures each, beginning at the decimal point and proceeding toward the left for the integral part, and toward the right for the decimal. The last period of the decimal must...  Academic Algebra - Page 361by George Wentworth, David Eugene Smith - 1913 - 458 pagesFull view - About this book
