Excerpt from Decimals and Decimalisation: A Study and Sketch Let me see, says the clown in Introduction Shakespeare's The Winter's Tale. Let me see - every 'leven wether tods every tod yields pound and odd shilling fifteen hundred shorn, what comes the wool to? Then, after a. Pause, he adds: I cannot do't without counters. The sum is not a. Hard one now-a - days. Eleven sheep give a. Tod (i.e. 28 1bs.)of woo], worth ???1. 18. 0d., what will fifteen hundred yield? Evidently ???1500, plus l500s., or ???75; together ???1575, divided by eleven, which, in 33 figures, gives ???143 38. 7154. In this country it would be still more simply solved. Eleven sheep produce wool worth so the answer comes at once, x 1500+ 11 which needs no reduction. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
