This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1838 Excerpt: ...+, the Answer. 396 400 As there can be no tenths, a cipher must 396 be placed in the quotient, in tenth's place. 4 Note. cannot be reduced exactly; for, however long the division be continued, there will still be a remainder. It is sufficiently exact for most purposes, if the decimal be extended to three or four places. From the foregoing examples we may deduce the following general Rule: --To reduce a common to a decimal frac Decimal figures, which continually repeat, like '06, in this example are called Repetends, or Circulating Decimals. If only one figure repeats, as '3333 or '7777, &c, it is called a single repelend. If two or more figures circulate alternately, as '060G06, '234234234, &c, it is called a compound repelend. If other figures arise before those which circulate, as '743333, '143010101, &c, the decimal is called a mixed repetend. _ A single repetend is denoted by writing only the circulating figure with a point over it: thus, '3, signifies that the 3 is to be continually repeated, forming an infinite or never-ending series of 3's..1 compound repetend is denoted by a point over the first and last repeating figure: thus, '234 signifies that 234 is to be continually repeated. It may not be amiss, here to show how the value of any repetend may be found, or, in other words, how it may be reduced to its equivalent vulgar fraction. If we attempt to reduce $ to a decimal, we obtain a continual repetition of the figure 1: thus, '11111, that is, the repetend '1. The value of the repetend '1, then, is; the value of '222, &c., the repetend'2, will evidently be twice as much, that is, f. In the same manner, 3 =, and '4 = and '5 =, and so on to 9, which = = 1. 1. What is the value of '8? Ans. f. 2. What is the value of...
