My Dear Art. AS you require the ,r.n.
ner by which the distances are obtained to you,
Problem in Mensuraton, | will briefly observe.
that first find the solidty Of grindstooe, Y
inches in diameter and e inches thick, 10 be
24429.0Sl6 cubic inches then estimate the
two comic excavations from the sides, viz
27l4.3424 cubic inches, and sub,racting this
from the former. | find the solidily Of the grind
stone to be 2l7l47392 cubic inches. By the
ratio of 6 to 4 l2 find that A leaves 1886
0544. by that of 6 to 2 l2 find C's part
9047 1903. Now since all similar solids are,
as the cubes CT their like dimensions, I say, ss
the whole solidity 2l7l4.7392 is to 1886 0544,
So is the cube of the whole radius So to 352O6.
S5S205. The cube root Of this is 22774 which
sub,racted from Sc, leaves 1926 inches, which
A must grind off. Again, as 2l7l47392 10 to
C's part 9047 sos, SO is 1866 to l944O, the
cube of C's radius, the cube root Of which is
26.e88, G erinds off; and consequently B
must grind 1856 inches.

vailed Parthenun, glowing in polished marble, and
