The attested scribal methodology selected the best least common multiple (LCM) m before red auxiliary numbers, divisors of denominators mp, were recorded in concise unit fraction series. During the 19th, 20th and 21st centuries the hard-to-read scribal shorthand was required to be parsed by looking for omitted initial and intermediate steps. Peet applied the Latin name " ab initio.

Egyptian fraction arithmetic appeared in the Middle Kingdom. After 2,000 BCE the Akhmim Wooden Tablet, the Reisner Papyrus, EMLR and RMP used the same remainder arithmetic. Egyptian division was inverse to Egyptian multiplication. Egyptian fraction weights and measures units methods diffused to Greek, Hellene, Coptic, Arabs and medieval eras. Ahmes' RMP 36 red auxiliary numbers scaled 2/53 imply that 2/n tables were constructed by the same methodology. Monday, December 19, 2005. Control systems were unit...
