Excerpt from The Tutor's Guide: Being a Complete System of Arithmetic; With Various Branches in the Mathematics; In Six Parts
A Fraction, or broken Number, is always less than Unit, as 1 represents three quarters of any thing or Unit, and g is six eighths' of Unit, or 1, &c.
Arithmetic, with regard to art and science, consists both in Theory and Practice.
Theory considers the nature and quality of Numbers, and demonstrates the reason of practical operations.
