If after you have made use of all the Cyphersannexed to the numerator there is a remainder annex Cyphers thereto and continue your division till it divide off or arrive to what degree of exectness you think proper.- Always observe to set a point betwixt the numerator and the Cyphers annexed thereto and that the quotient have as many places as you annex annex Cyphers to the numerator and remainders, and if it be deficient let the want be supplied by prefixing as many Cyphers to the quotient as it falls short.- Those decimals that are reduced from such a Vulgar Fraction whose numerator with Cyphers annexed is an aliquot part of or can be measured by its denominator are finite or determinate decimals.- as No fraction will produce a finite decimal but such whose denominator is 2 or 5 and their multiples.-
