A sheet of arithmetical calculations, with a small plan
Columns of whole numbers and fractions in ounces, and a red-chalk planimetric sketch
The sheet is filled almost entirely with columns of arithmetic in whole numbers and fractions, several of them reckoned in ounces (oncia), worked down and across the page as multiplications and reductions. A small red-chalk planimetric sketch of a divided plot appears at the lower center-right. Further untranscribed writing runs along the foot and right margin of the leaf and is not included in the transcription.

Columns of calculations in whole numbers and fractions
The page carries a dense worksheet of arithmetic, including values such as 384, 320, 1856 and 1824 together with fractional quantities reckoned in ounces (63 1/3 oncia). The numbers are worked in vertical columns of multiplication and reduction of fractions.
Small red-chalk plan of a divided plot
At the lower center-right a small planimetric sketch in red chalk shows a rectangular enclosure with internal divisions. No text of this drawing is transcribed in the bundle.
