 Hence, if we find the logarithm of the dividend, and from it subtract the logarithm of the divisor, the remainder will be the logarithm of the quotient. This additional caution may be added. The difference of the logarithms, as here used, means the algebraic...  Plane and Spherical Trigonometry ... - Page 11by Henry W. Jeans - 1842Full view - About this book
