The quotient is the area of section of the fly wheel rim in square inches. Q. Can you give a rule for telling the proper thickness of the cylinders of steam engines?
From the Least Common Multiple up to the Greatest Common Divisor, from the thin, poker-like Quotient with the fierce white moustache to the enormous, puffy Multiplicand, Sara thought they were the most pompous lot she had ever seen.
A. Yes; at the atmospheric pressure, about a cubic inch of water has to be supplied to the boiler for every cubic foot of steam abstracted; at other pressures, the relative bulk of water and steam may be determined as follows: To the temperature of steam in degrees of Fahrenheit, add the constant number 458, multiply the sum by 37.3, and divide the product by the elastic force of the steam in pounds per square inch; the quotient will give the volume required.
Learn the rules, and that's all. . . . To divide a fraction by a fraction you must multiply the numerator of the first fraction by the denominator of the second, and that will be the numerator of the quotient. . . . In this case, the numerator of the first fraction. . . ." "I know that without your telling me," Styopa interrupts him, flicking a walnut shell off the table. "Show me the proof."
Divide this quadruple height by the diameter of the circle, and the quotient is the centrifugal force in terms of the weight of the body, so that, multiplying the quotient by the actual weight of the body, we have the centrifugal force in pounds or tons.
To find the depth, the breadth being given: divide this product by the breadth in inches, and extract the square root of the quotient, which is the depth.
"Dear me!" said Mary, unable to repress her sarcasm; "that accounts for the curates like Mr. Crowse. Divide your cleverness by ten, and the quotient dear me! is able to take a degree. But that only shows you are ten times more idle than the others." "Well, if I did pass, you would not want me to go into the Church?" "That is not the question what I want you to do.
The quotient giving one hundred and twenty as the number of representatives, that number was apportioned upon the several states according to their population, allotting to each one member for every thirty thousand, and distributing the remaining members, to make up the one hundred and twenty, among the states having the largest fractions.
"Oh, really!" in the most feeble manner you can imagine. All the while I was really looking at her more than the flowers, and discovering lots of things. Number one sweet eyes just like her mother's; number two sweet lips with tiny little white teeth like a child's; number three a long white throat above that awful collar. Quotient a girl who ought to be quite sweet, but who made herself a fright.
But in her own way and time the due process of deliberation was fulfilled, and the quotient made clear that, bowed or not, all children's legs were of equal length except her own, and all were alike, not one full, strong, hard, the other soft, flabby, wrinkled, growing out of a knot at the hip.
