quicunque nam a potest significare vel 0 vel 1.
vel 2. vel etiam L et si a significet 3, et b significet 2. tunc a + b significabit 3+ 2 seu 5,
Arithmeticae igitur comparatione facilius

jam probe didicerunt

rursus Arithmeticam perficiemus,
quia ope  Algebra inveniuntur regulae
generales, pro numeris quibuscunque.
Numerorum characteres sunt vel simplices

Algebra est scientia numerorum generalium sive incertorum
ut a. item b qua m appellabant, rendiget, res, vel cosa
Nam omnis quantitas est par numerus
partium, exempli causa quantitas agri
est numerus pedum quadratorum quos
continet. Unde patet eandem esse scientiam
quantitatis in genere, et scientiam
numerorum genenalium
