III. The Proof of Multiplication. 97I 216 folid Multiplication may be proved feveral ways; viz. Here firfl: multiply r8 feet 6 inches into 2 feet 4 inches, by multiplication, by divifion, and by caflingout the 9’s, as formerly, and'..the produdb is 43 feet 24,inches fuper- 1. By multiplication: Change the places of the facficial ; which next multiply into 2 feet 3 inches li- tors, and make that the multiplier which before was the neal, thus, 43 fuperfieial feet into 2: lineal feet produce multiplicand; and if the york be right, you will have 86 folid feet, and 24 foperficial incites into 3 lineal inches- the fame produft; as before; but this method is tedious. produce 72 folid inches, by Rule V.; then a 3 fuperfi- 2. By divifion : When the work is right, the prod eft cial feet into 3 lineal inches produce 1.29 parallelepipeds, divided by the multiplier quotes the multiplicand; or, whofe bafe is 1 fquare, foot, and their height 1 inch; divided by the multiplicand, quotes the multiplier. But which divided by 12 quotes. 10 folid.feet.; and tl>e re- this fuppofes thfr learner acquainted with divifion. mainder 9 multiplied into 144 produces-1296 folid inches,, 3. The moft ufual method therefore of proving multiby Rule VI. Again, 2 lineal feet into 24 fuperficial. plication is by calling out the 9’s; which is done, thus: inches produce 48; which, being kfs than 144, you e- Call the 9’s out of the multiplicand and multiplier, and fteem a remainder, and multiplying it into 12. you have a. place the excelfes on the right and left fides of a crofsproduft of 576 folid inches, by Rule IX. multiply thefe two figures into one another, calling the Becaufe the fum of the inches exceeds 1728, carry 9’s out of their produft, if need be, and place the excefs 1 Qwn from thence to the feet, and the overplus 216 fet at the top of the crofs; then calling the 9’s alfo out of^ ‘ the produA of your multiplication, place its excefs at the : bottom 5 .
