after the subtraction of that share, the computation is this: Divide the heritage into thirteen parts. The legacy from the whole capital is three parts, after the subtraction of which there remains the capital less three parts. Now, one-ninth and one-tenth of the remaining capital must be added, namely, one-ninth and one-tenth of the whole capital less one-ninth and one-tenth of three parts, or less nineteen-thirtieths of a part; this yields the capital and one-ninth and one-tenth less three parts and nineteen-thirtieths of a part, equal to thirteen parts. Reduce this, by removing the three parts and nineteen-thirtieths from your capital, and adding them to the thirteen parts. Then you have the capital and one-ninth and one-tenth of the same, equal to sixteen parts and nineteen-thirtieths of a part. Reduce this to one capital, by subtracting from it nineteen one-hundred-and-ninths. There remains a (76) capital, equal to thirteen parts and eighty one-hundred-and-ninths. Divide each part into one hundred and nine parts, by multiplying thirteen by one hundred and nine, and add eighty to it. This gives one thousand four hundred and ninety-seven parts. seven parts.
