...result. The most important property of a fraction is, that if both its numerator and denominator are multiplied by the same number, the value of the fraction is not altered ; that is, £ is the same as i|, or each part is the same when we divide 12 inches into 20 parts, as... | |

...Demonstration. — The demonstration of the preceding rule depends upon the following principle. If both terms of a fraction be multiplied by the same number, the value of the fraction is not altered ; for, by multiplying the numerator, the fraction is multiplied (20), and by multiplying the denominator,... | |
