الصفحة 59 - Multiply the numerators together for a new numerator, and the denominators together for a new denominator.
الصفحة 217 - In an arithmetical progression, the sum of the extremes is equal to the sum of any other two terms equally distant from the extremes.
الصفحة 156 - The equality of the two sides is not affected by this alteration, because we only change one quantity x for another •which is equal to it. By this means we obtain an equation which contains only one unknown quantity.
الصفحة 292 - After remarking that the mathematician positively knows that the sum of the three angles of a triangle is equal to two right angles...
الصفحة 233 - Divide the first term of the dividend by the first term of the divisor, and write the result as the first term of the quotient.
الصفحة 20 - If the same quantity or equal quantities be subtracted from equal quantities, the remainders will be equal. 3. If equal quantities be multiplied into the same, or equal quantities, the products will be equal. 4. If equal quantities be divided by the same or equal quantities, the quotients will be equal. 5.
