Columns of Divisions and Fractions, with a Church Plan
Numbered arithmetic exercises beside a lobed centralized-church plan and a domed structure
The verso is filled with numbered rows of arithmetic — divisions carried down to fractional remainders (2, 3, 4 ... 9) — set out in columns down the left side and repeated at the top. At the center appear the same lobed plan of a centralized church and small domed structure that mark the recto, drawn through the thin sheet, and further faint show-through of the recto's writing runs along the right margin.

Numbered divisions with fractional remainders
A ladder of numbered exercises pairs three-figure numbers with quotients carrying fractions such as 1/3, 2/4, 3/5, 4/7, 6/8 and 6/9. Short halving and multiplication chains (for example 12, 3, 24, 27, 36, 9, 12, 3, 4) are worked at the foot of the column.
Plan of a centralized church and a domed structure
At the center of the sheet a lobed plan of a centralized building with clustered chapels sits above a small perspective of a domed structure ringed by lower cupolas. These drawings are shared with the recto and are not covered by the transcription.
