In the quintuple series, 5, 25, 125, 625, kc. it will be found<br />

that each term of the series exceeds the quadruple of the sum<br />

of its parts, by unity.<br />

In the septuple series, each term exceeds the sextuple of the<br />

sum of its parts, by unity.<br />

In the noncuple series, each term exceeds the octuple of the<br />

sum of its parts, by unity. And thus in all series formed by<br />

the multiplication of odd numbers, each term will exceed the<br />

sum arising from the multiplication of its parts by the odd<br />

number, by unity.<br />

If to each term of the<br />

series -.----.-.-.-.-..---.--.- 12 4 8 16 32 64 128 256<br />

6 is added, viz. -..--..-.... 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6<br />

the sums will be .-..--...- 7 8 10 14 22 38 70 134 262<br />

And if to the series ..-. 1 3 9 27 81 243 729 2187 6561<br />

be added -..-....--.......------- 3 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6<br />

the sums will be .---.--.-.-. 4 9 15 33 87 249 735 2193 6567, kc.<br />

In which it is remarkable, that the aggregates of the parts of<br />

the five sums 8, 10, 14, 22, 38, are 7, 8, 10, 14, 32; and of the<br />

parts of the five sums 9, 15, 33, 87, 249, are 4, 9, 15, 33, 87.<br />

The aggregates also of the parts of the sums 134, 262, are 70,<br />

134; but this will not be the case with the sums beyond 262,<br />

if the terms of the duple series are continued, and 6 is added<br />

to them. Nor will it be the case with the sums of the triple<br />

series beyond 249.<br />

numbers, by the sums produced by the addition of
