Example.

To find 1560, take the middle one for 1000, and five tenths for 500, and 6 tenths of them tenths for 60, which is the point 1560 &c. Also if it be desired to find the fraction 1560, of 10000, that is the same point, and may thus be writ 1560/10000; or it is the point that represents the fra∣ction 156/1000 &c. Be perfect to read the Line well, then will the other Rules be easie.
