garden. One-eighth of that (collection) became hidden in aśōka trees, in kuțaja trees. The difference between those that hid themselves in the kuțaja trees and the aśōka trees, respectively, multiplied by 6, became hidden in a crowd of big pātalī' trees. The difference between those that hid themselves in the pātalī trees and the aśōka trees, diminished by of itself became hidden in an extensive forest of sāla trees. The same difference, together with of itself, became hidden in a forest of madhuka trees ; of that whole collection of bees was seen hidden in the vakula trees with well-blossomed flower-buds; and that same part was found hidden in tilaka, kuravaka, sarala and mango trees, and on collections of lotuses, and at the base of the temples of forest elephants; and 33(remaining) bees were seen in a crowd of lotuses, that were variegated in color on account of the large quantity of (their) filaments. Give out, O you arithmetician, the (numerical) measure of that collection of bees.

28. Of a herd of cattle, is on a mountain; of that is at the base of the mountain; and 6 more parts, each being in value half of what precedes it, are found together in an extensive forest, and there are (the remaining) 82 cows seen in the neighbourhood of a city. Tell me, O you my friend, the (numerical) measure of that herd of cattle.

Of a collection of mango fruits, the king (took) ; the queen (took) of the remainder, and three chief princes took and (of that same remainder) ; and the youngest child took the remaining three mangoes. O you, who are clever in (working) miscellaneous problems on fractions give out the measure of that (collection of mangoes).

31. One-seventh of (a herd of) elephants is moving on a mountain ; portions of the herd, measuring from in order up to in the end, of every successive remainder, wander about in a forest; and the remaining 6 (of them) are seen near a lake . How many are those elephants ?
