EVOLUTIONE FACTORUM ORTIS. 229 CAP. XV. $M = 1 + \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{5} + \frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{7} + \&c. = \infty$. Hinc ob $\frac{1}{M} = \frac{1}{\infty} = 0$, fiet $0 = 1 - \frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{3} - \frac{1}{5} + \frac{1}{6} - \frac{1}{7} + \frac{1}{10} - \frac{1}{11} - \frac{1}{13} + \frac{1}{14} + \frac{1}{15} + \&c.$ Tum vero in productis habebitur $M = \infty = \frac{1}{(1-\frac{1}{2})(1-\frac{1}{3})(1-\frac{1}{5})(1-\frac{1}{7})(1-\frac{1}{11})\&c.}$, unde fit $\infty = \frac{2}{1} \cdot \frac{3}{2} \cdot \frac{5}{4} \cdot \frac{7}{6} \cdot \frac{11}{10} \cdot \ [TRUNCATED]
