and talce out the whole eight in the order they ftand, ending with that imniedi»tcly on 

 the left hand (which will be the laft figure of the circulating part.) You will then have 

 obtained the complete interell of i/. at i per cent, for the given number of days. 



To find the intereft at i per cent, of the decuples of it. viz. 10/. 100/. 1000/. &c. 

 move the decimal point one, two, three, &c. places more to the right hand, and the com- 

 plete intereft of the decuples will be obtained. 



The intereft of i/. to its decuples at 1/. per cent, for any given number of days having 

 been found, the intereft of any other fum, at the fame rate, may eafiiy be derived from 

 it by the rule of practice. 



And this amount being obtained, let it be multiplied by any given rate of intereft, and 

 the product will be the complete intereft of any given fum, for any given number of days 

 at the given rate of intereft. 



EXAMPLE I. 



Required the intereft of \l. for i day, at the rate of i per cent, per annum. 

 In the firft line of the firft principal divifion is one day, and in the 



left hand column are two cyphers, viz. - - •c6 



In the fecond column from the left, and againft the one day, is a 



cypher, viz. - - _ _ o 



In the line of circulates, immediately over the one day, is a cypher, 



viz. ----- Q 



And this is the firft circulate of the complete intereft. 

 The other feven circulates follow in rotation, thus - - 2739726

EXAMPLE n. 



Required the complete intereft of i/. at i per cent, per annum for 364 days. 



By the foregoing part or defcription of the table 364 days muft be in the tenth, or laft, 



column of one of the firft nine principal divlfions •, and accordingly it is found at the 



bottom of the firft divifion. 



As before, in the left hand column are two cyphers - 'oo 



In the fecond column from the left, and againft the 364 days, is fig. 9 



In the line of circulates immediately over 364 days, is fig. g
