serve_v to_o reduce_v inch_n and_o 8_o part_n to_o the_o decimal_n of_o a_o foot_n or_o the_o contrary_n a_o explanation_n of_o this_o table_n the_o first_o column_n show_v the_o inch_n and_o eight_o part_n of_o a_o foot_n and_o the_o second_o column_n show_v the_o decimal_a number_n answer_v thereto_o example_n seek_v for_o 11_o inch_n and_o 8_o 4_o or_o a_o half_a in_o the_o first_o column_n

over_o the_o five_o and_o so_o forward_o in_o such_o manner_n that_o between_o every_o two_o point_n which_o be_v next_o one_o to_o another_o so_o that_o one_o place_n may_v be_v intermit_v according_a to_o this_o example_n 630436._o suppose_v the_o square_a root_n of_o this_o number_n be_v require_v the_o first_o point_n be_v to_o be_v place_v over_o 6_o and_z the_o second_o over_z 4_o and_o so_o of_o the_o rest_n as_o you_o see_v in_o the_o example_n and_o note_v that_o as_o many_o point_n as_o be_v place_v in_o that_o manner_n of_o so_o many_o figure_n will_v the_o root_n be_v to_o fit_v it_o for_o operation_n draw_v a_o crooked_a line_n on_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o the_o number_n propound_v for_o extraction_n then_o find_v the_o root_n of_o the_o first_o square_n and_o place_n it_o in_o the_o quotient_a which_o in_o this_o example_n be_v find_v to_o be_v 7_o then_o square_n the_o quotient_n which_o be_v 49_o and_o place_n it_o under_o the_o first_o square_n of_o the_o number_n
