...negative Indices must be taken for the index to the Logarithm of the Quotient. Likewise when one has b'en borrowed in the left hand place of the Decimal part of the Logarithm, add it to the Index of the Divisor, if affirmative ; but subtract H, if negative ; and let the Index, thence arising, be changed... | |
