NOTE.-To find the value of any number of pounds represented by one figure, find the figure in the left-hand margin
of the upper table, and its value will appear in the column adjoining opposite that figure. To find the value when ex-
pressed by two figures, look for the tens in the left-hand column, and for the units in the top margin, and the value will be
shown in the place where the two columns meet; thus the value of £57 is $277.3905. To find the value of £576, look for 57 as
before, and move the decimal point one place to the right, and it shows $2773.905; then add £6 as already shown, $29.199,
and it gives the sum of $2803.104.

The lower table shows the value of every combination of shillings and pence less than £1; the upper margin repre-
senting the shillings, and the left-hand margin the pence. Thus, to find the value of 17 shillings and 6 pence, follow the
column 17 downward until it meets the left-hand column opposite 6, and it shows $4.25. By this method any number of
pounds, shillings, and pence can be reduced to United States gold quickly and accurately.
