Hand book of calculations for engineers and firemen : Relating to the steam engine, the steam boiler, pumps, shafting, etc. . ts is the same as if we had multiplied by .7854 in the ordinary manner. The process may be rendered clearer if the reason for the method is explained. If we put down the number 7, then one place to the right put it down 7 again; then multiply it by 2 and put product one 7 place to the right, then put this down again one place 14 to the right, and add them all up, we clearly get the 14 number 7854, therefore if we multiply in this order we get the same result as if .7854
