    One hour of time is divided into 60 minutes, and one minute is divided into 60 seconds. Thus, a measurement of time such as 3:23:17 (3 hours, 23 minutes, and 17 seconds) can be interpreted as a whole sexagesimal number (no sexagesimal point), meaning 3 × 60 2 + 23 × 60 1 + 17 × 60 0 seconds .

    Decimal numbers are not divided directly, the dividend and divisor are multiplied by a power of ten so that the division involves two whole numbers. Therefore, if one were dividing 12,7 by 0,4 (commas being used instead of decimal points), the dividend and divisor would first be changed to 127 and 4, and then the division would proceed as above.

    26: It is divisible by 2 and by 13. [6] 156: it is divisible by 2 and by 13. Subtracting 5 times the last digit from 2 times the rest of the number gives a multiple of 26. (Works because 52 is divisible by 26.) 1,248 : (124 ×2) - (8×5) = 208 = 26 × 8 27: Sum the digits in blocks of three from right to left. (Works because 999 is divisible by ...

In fact, they divided the day into 12 parts (called kaspu or "double hours") or into 60 equal parts. [26]

[2] In the example, 20 is the dividend, 5 is the divisor, and 4 is ...
