...made it fifteen times too large, divide it by this 15; that is to say, we have the same result if we multiply the second and third terms together, and divide the product by the first. AND THIS is THE RULE ; this, when the terms are properly placed, this MULTIPLYING THE SECOND AND THE... | |

...mentioned in it.* * It is often better to reduce the lower denominations to the decimal of the highest. 3. Multiply the second and third terms together, and divide the product by the first, and the quotient will be the answer, in that denomination which the third term was left in. In arranging... | |

Then multiply the second and third terms together, and divide the product by the first term: the quotient will be the fourth term, or answer.
