Sheet of calculations with faint sketches
Columns of whole numbers and fractions amid light drawings
The transcribed content of this leaf is a scattered field of arithmetic: columns of whole numbers together with fractions such as 4 1/2, 15 1/2 and 3/43. Interspersed among the figures are faint, lightly inked sketches that were not transcribed, including small spindle and boat-like shapes and crossed forms. The numbers are grouped loosely rather than set out as a single continuous calculation.

Columns of figures and fractions
The sheet carries loose groups of whole numbers and fractions, including entries such as 4 1/2, 7, 28, 31 1/2, 126 and 3/43. They read as working calculations rather than a finished result.
