(One) square-side is 2/3 of the (other) square-side. Add 20 to the large square-side, add 5 to the small square-side. What are the square-sides? You, when you proceed: combine 20, so that it gives 6 40. Combine 5, so that it gives 25. Sum 6 40 and 25, so that it gives 7 05. Take away 7 05 from 52 05, so that it gives 45 00. Combine 1, so that it gives 1. Combine 0;40. It gives 0;26 40. Sum 1 and 0;26 40, so that it gives 1;26 40. Multiply 1;26 40 by 45 00, so that it gives 1 05 00. Combine 20 and 1, so that (it gives 20). Combine 0;40 and 5, so that it gives 3;20. Sum 20 and 3;20, so that it gives 23;20. Combine 23;20, so that it gives 9 04;26 40. Add 9 04;46 40 to 1 05 00, so that it gives 1 14 04;46 40. The square-side of 1 14 04;46 40 is 1 06;40. Take away 23;20 from 1 06;40, so that it gives [43;20]. What should I put to 1;26 40 so that it gives 43;20? Put 30. Multiply 30 by 1. It gives 30. Add 20 to 30, so that the large square-side is 50. Multiply 30 by 0;40. It gives 20.
