ANCIENT ARITHMETIC.

Problems Sehooiboys Had to Solve
Thirty-six Centuries Ago.
There is a ray of vindictive comfort
for the modern schoolboy in the fact
that for over 5000 years his schoolboy
progenitors have been worried by just
such problems in arithmetic as annoy
him most.
Among the archaeological discoveries
made in Egypt is papyrus roll, in
excellent condition. dating from about
100 B. C. This roll. which had a
long heading beginning. Directions
how to attain the knowledge of all
dark things" proves beyond doubt that
the Egyptians Of that time had a
thorough knowledge of the elements
of arithmetic.
Numerous examples show that their
principal operations with units and
fractions were made by means of adj
dition and multiplication. Subtrac-
ton and division were not known in
their present form, but correct results
were obtained NEVERTHELESS.
Equations are also found in the papy-
rus. Here is one that brings the Egyp-
tan schoolboy home to us:
Ten measures Of barley are to be di-
vided among ten persons in such man
ner that each subsequent person shall
receive one-eighth less than the one
before him.
Another example given is: There are
seven men: each one has seven cats:
each cat has eaten seven mice; each
mouse has eaten seven grains of bar
ley; each grain Of barley would have
yielded seven measures Of barley.
how much barley has been lost?
