that species lower species
and if there is a remainder
proceed as before still
reducing and dividing till
you come to the lowest
species and the several
quotients will the remainder
(if any) which is
always the numerator of
a fraction of the lowest
species are the answer.

If the fraction to
be valued be an improper
one divide the numerator
by the denominator and
the quotient is a integer
of the same species with
the fraction.-

In order to prepare fractions
for addition or subtraction
all compound fractions
must be reduced to single
ones and if they are of
different denominations
they must be brought
into the same denomination
and reduced so as
all fractions shall have
one common denominator -

Add together all the
numerators for a new
numerator under which
subscribe the common
denominator -

The fractions being
prepared as before directed
in addition then,

Subtract one numerator
from the other and
their difference will be
a new numerator under
which subscribe the
common denominator -

To prepare fractions for either multiplication or revision reduce compound factions to single ones; being mixed numbers into improper fractions and express whole numbers fraction-wise also reduce fractions into their lowest terms then Multiply the numerators into one another for a new numerator and the denominators one into another for a new denominator.- The fractions being prepared as directed for multiplication; division may be thus performed. Multiply the number of the dividend into the denominator of the dividing fraction for a numerator and denominator together for a new denominator - If the division and dividend have both the same denominator quotient may be found by dividing one numerator by another. If the numerator and denominator of the dividend can be divided without a remainder by
