If an inch be divided into 12 equal parts, each part is called a second, and marked ". If a second be divided, in like manner, into 12 DUODECIMALS. 179 equal parts, each part is called a third, and marked "' ; and so on for divisions still smaller. This division of the foot gives 1' inch or prime - - , - - - = -^ of a foot. I" second is ^ of & - - - = y^ of a foot. 1'" third is T V of & of A' - = TT^ of a foot - NOTE. The marks ', ", '", &c., which denote the fractional units, are called indices, TABLE. 12'" make 1" second. 12" " 1' inch or prime. 12' " 1 foot. Hence : Duodecimals are denominate fractions, in which the primary unit is 1 foot, and 12 the scale of division. NOTE. Duodecimals are chiefly used in measuring surfaces and solids. ADDITION AND SUBTRACTION. 198. The units of duodecimals are reduced, added, and subtracted, like those of other denominate numbers. The scale is always 12. EXAMPLES. 1. In 185', how many feet ? 2.

Begin with the highest unit of the multiplier and the lowest of the multiplicand, and recollect, 1st. That 1 foot x 1 foot=l square foot (Art. 110). 2d. That a part of a foot x a part of a foot = some part of a square foot. NOTE. Observe that the unit is changed, by multiplication, from a linear to a superficial unit. Multiply 6ft. T 8" by 2/fc. 9'.

I. Write the multiplier under the multiplicand, so that units of the same order shall fall in the same column. II. Begin with the highest unit of the multiplier and the lowest of the multiplicand, and make the index of each product equal to the sum of the indices of the factors. III. Eeduce each product, in succession, to the next higher denomination, when possible. NOTE. The index of the unit of any product is equal to the of the indices of the factors. EXAMPLES. 1 . How many solid feet in a stick of timber which is 25 feet 6 inches long, 2 feet 7 inches broad, and 3 feet 3 inches thick ? 199. Explain the method of multiplying duodecimals. Give the rule. DUODECIMALS. 181 OPERATION. .# Beginning with the 2 feet, we say 2 25 6' length, times 6' are 12'=1 square foot : then, 2 27' breadth. times 25 are 50, and 1 to carry are 51 f square feet. 51 Next, 7 times 6' are 42", =3' and 6" : 3' 6' then 7' times 25=175'=14 7': hence, the ^4 j' surface is 65 10' 6", and by multiplying by the thickness, we find the solid contents 65 1" o to be 214 1' 1" 6'" cubic feet. 3 X thickness. 197 7' 6" 16 5' 7" 6"'' 214 1'1"6'" 2.

Sin. wide, and 3m. thick, if there is no waste in sawing ? 182 DECIMAL FRACTIONS. DECIMAL FRACTIONS. 200. There are two kinds of Fractions : Common Frar tions and Decimal Fractions. A Common Fraction is one in which the unit is divided into any number of equal parts. A Decimal fraction is one in which the unit is divided ac- cording to the scale of tens. 201. If the unit 1 be divided into 10 equal parts, the parts are called tenths. If the unit 1 be divided into one hundred equal parts, the parts are called hundredths. If the unit 1 be divided into one thousand equal parts, the parts are called thousandths, and we have similar expressions for the parts, when the unit is further divided according to the scale of tens. * These fractions may be written thus : Four-tenths, - - - *fo. Six-tenths, - - T V Forty-five hundredths, 125 thousandths, 1047 ten thousandths, - From which we see, that in each case the denominator indicates the fractional unit ; that is, determines whether it is one-tenth, one-hundredth, one-thousandth, &c. 202. The denominators of decimal fractions are seldom written. The fractions are usually expressed by means of a period, placed at the left of the numerator. Thus ^5- is written - . 4 200. How many kinds of fractions are there? What are they? What is a common fraction ? What is a decimal fraction ? 201. When the unit 1 Is divided into 10 equal parts, what is each part called ? What is each part called when it is divided into 100 equal parts? When into 10000? Into 10,000, &c. ? How are decimal frac- tions formed ? What gives denomination to the fraction ! DECIMAL FRACTIONS. 183 This method of writing decimal fractions is" a mere lan- guage, and is used to avoid writing the denominators. The denominator, however, of every decimal fraction is always understood : It is the unit 1 with as many ciphers annexed as there are places of figures in the decimal. The place next to the decimal point, is called the place of tenths, and its unit is 1 tenth. The next place, to the right, is the place of hundredths, and its unit is 1 hundreth ; the next is the place of thousandths, and its unit is 1 thous- andth ; and similarly for places still to the right.

NOTE. Decimal fractions are numerated from left to right ; thus, tenths, hundredths, thousandths, &c. 202. Are the denominators of decimal fractions generally written ? How are the fractions expressed? Is the denominator understood?. What is it ? What is the place next the decimal point called ? What is its unit ? What is the next place called ? What is its unit ? What is the third place called ? What is its unit ? Which way are decimals numerated ? 184 DECIMAL FRACTIONS. 203. Wfite and numerate the following decimals : Four tenths, .4 Four hundredths, - .0 4 Four thousandths, .004 Four ten thousandths, - .0004 Four hundred thousandths, .00004 Four millionths, - .000004 Four ten millionths, .0000004. Here we see, that the same figure expresses different deci- mal units, according to the place which it occupies : therefore, The value of the unit, in the different places, in passing from the left to the right, diminishes according to the scale of tens. Hence, ten of the units in any place, are equal to one unit in the place next to the left ; that is, ten thousandths make one hundredth, ten hundredths make one-tenth, and ten-tenths, the unit 1. This scale of increase, from the right hand towards the left, is the same as that in whole numbers ; therefore, Whole numbers and decimal fractions may be united by placing the decimal point between them : thus, Whole numbers. Decimals. I I 836 3'0 641. 0478976 A number composed partly of a whole number and partly of a decimal, is called a mixed number. DECIMAL FRACTIONS. 185 RULE FOR WRITING DECIMALS. Write the decimal as if it were a whole number, prefix- ing as many ciphers as are necessary to make it of the required denomination. RULE FOR READING DECIMALS. Read the decimal as though it were a whole number, adding the denomination indicated by the lowest decimal unit. EXAMPLES. Write the following numbers, decimally : (1.) (2.) (3.) (4.) (5.) 3 16 17 32 165 10 , 1000 10000 100 10000 (6.) (7.) (8.) (9.) (10.) Write the following numbers in figures, and then numerate them. 1. Forty-one, and three-tenths. 2. Sixteen, and three millionths. 3. Five, and nine hundredths. 4. Sixty-five, and fifteen thousandths. 5. Eighty, and three millionths. 6. Two, and three hundred millionths. 7. Four hundred, and ninety-two thousandths. 8. Three thousand, and twenty-one ten thousandths. 9. Forty-seven, and twenty-one hundred thousandths. 10. Fifteen hundred, and three millionths. 11. Thirty-nine, and six hundred and forty thousandths. 12. Three thousand, eight hundred and forty millionths. 1 3. Six hundred and fifty thousandths. 203. Docs the value of the unit of a figure depend upon the place which it occupies V How does the value change from the left towards the right ? What do ten units of any one place make ? How do the units of the place increase from the right towards the left ? How may whole numbers be joined with decimals? What is such a number called? Give the rule for writing decimal fractions. Give the rule for reading decimal fractions. 186 UNITED STATES MONEY. UNITED STATES MONEY. 204. The denominations of United States Money correspond to the decimal division, if we regard 1 dollar as the unit. For, the dimes are tenths of the dollar, the cents are hun- dredths of the dollar, and the mills, being tenths of the cent, are thousandths of the dollar. EXAMPLES. 1. Express$39 and 39 cents and 7 mills, decimally.

2. Express $12 and 3 mills, decimally. 3. Express$147 and 4 cents, decimally.

4. Express $148 4 mills, decimally. 5. Express$4 6 mills, decimally.

6. Express $9 6 cents 9 mills, decimally. 7. Express$10 13 cents 2 mills, decimally.

ANNEXING AND PREFIXING CIPHERS.

205. Annexing a cipher is placing it on the right of a
number.

If a cipher is annexed to a decimal it makes one more deci-
mal place, and therefore, a cipher must also be annexed to the
denominator (Art. 202).

The numerator and denominator will therefore have been
multiplied by the same number, and consequently the value
of the fraction will not be changed (Art. 161) : hence,

Annexing ciphers to a decimal fraction does not alter its
value.

We may take as an example, .3 T 3 7 .

If we annex a cipher, to the numerator, we must, at the
same time, annex one to the denominator, which gives,

204. If the denominations of Federal Money be expressed decimally
what is the unit ? What part of a dollar is 1 dime ? What part of a
dime is a eent ? What part of a cent is a mill ? What part of a dollar
is 1 cent ? 1 mill ?

305. When is a cipher annexed to a number? Does the annexing
of ciphers to a decimal alter its value ? Why not ? What dp three
tenths become by annexing a cipher ? What by annexing two ciphers ?
Three ciphers? What do 8 tenths become by annexing a cipher? By
annexing two ciphers V By annexing three ciphers t

,3 = -j^j- = .30 by annexing one cipher,
.3 = T 3 TM7ir -300 by annexing two ciphers.

if a decimal point be placed on the right of an integral
number, and ciphers be then annexed, the value will not be
changed : thus, 5 = 5.0 = 5.00 = 5.000, &c.

206. Prefixing a cipher is placing it on the left of a
number.

If ciphers are prefixed to the numerator of a decimal frac-
tion, the same number of ciphers must be annexed to the
denominator. Now, the numerator will remain unchanged
while the denominator will be increased ten times for every
cipher annexed ; and hence, the value of the fraction will be
diminished ten times for every cipher prefixed to the nume-
rator (Art. 160).

Prefixing ciphers to a decimal fraction diminishes its
value ten times for every cipher prefixed.

Take, for example, the fraction .2= T *j-.
.2 becomes -ffc = .02 by prefixing one cipher,
.2 becomes -fipfc = - 002 by prefixing two ciphers,
.2 becomes -ffiPfc = .0002 by prefixing three ciphers :

in which the fraction is diminished ten times for every cipher

prefixed.

207. It must be remembered, that only units of the same
kind can be added together. Therefore, in setting down
decimal numbers for addition, figures expressing the same
unit must be placed in the same column.

200. When is a cipher prefixed to a number ? When prefixed to a
decimal, does it increase the numerator ? Does it increase the denomi-
nator? What effect then has it on the value of the fraction ? What
do .3 become by prefixing; a cipher? By prefixing two ciphers? By
prefixing three? What do .07 become by prefixing a cipher ? By pre-
fixing two ? By prefixing three ? By prefixing four ?

down the numbers for addition? How will the decimal points fall ?
How do you then add ? How many decimal places do you point off m

DECIMAL FRACTIONS. 191

MULTIPLICATION OF DECIMAL FRACTIONS.

209. To multiply one decimal by another.
1. Multiply 3.05 by 4.102.

OPERATION.

ANALYSIS. If we change both factors to vul- s. 3 05

&r fractions, the product of the numerator will 4JJL2. 1 1Q9
be the same as that of the decimal numbers, and

the number of decimal places will be equal to the 610

number of ciphers in the two denominators: 305

hence, 12 . 20

12.51110

RULE. Multiply as in simple numbers, and point off" in
the product, from the right hand, as many figures for decimals
as there'are decimal places in both factors ; and if there be
not so many in the product, supply the deficiency by prefixing
ciphers.
