- Lahun_Mathematical_Papyri abstract "The Lahun Mathematical Papyri (also known as the Kahun Mathematical Papyri) are part of a collection of Kahun Papyri discovered at El-Lahun (also known as Lahun, Kahun or Il-Lahun) by Flinders Petrie during excavations of a worker's town near the pyramid of Sesostris II. The Kahun Papyrus are a collection of texts including administrative texts, medical texts, veterinarian texts and six fragments devoted to mathematics.The mathematical texts most commented on are usually named: Lahun IV.2 (or Kahun IV.2) (UC 32159): This fragment contains a table of Egyptian fraction representations of numbers of the form 2/n. A more complete version of this table of fractions is given in the Rhind Mathematical Papyrus. Lahun IV.3 (or Kahun IV.3) (UC 32160) contains numbers in arithmetical progression and a problem very much like problem 40 of the Rhind Mathematical Papyrus. Another problem on this fragment computes the volume of a cylindrical granary. In this problem the scribe uses a formula which takes measurements in cubits and computes the volume and expresses it in terms of the unit khar. Given the diameter (d) and height (h) of the cylindrical granary:. In modern mathematical notation this is equal to(measured in khar). This problem resembles problem 42 of the Rhind Mathematical Papyrus. The formula is equivalent to measured in cubic-cubits as used in the other problems. Lahun XLV.1 (or Kahun XLV.1) (UC 32161) contains a group of very large numbers (hundreds of thousands). Lahun LV.3 (or Kahun LV.3) (UC 32134A and UC 32134B) contains a so called aha problem which asks one to solve for a certain quantity. The problem resembles ones from the Rhind Mathematical Papyrus (problems 24-29). Lahun LV.4 (or Kahun LV.4) (UC 32162) contains what seems to be an area computation and a problem concerning the value of ducks, geese and cranes. The problem concerning fowl is a baku problem and most closely resembles problem 69 in the Rhind Mathematical Papyrus and problems 11 and 21 in the Moscow Mathematical Papyrus. Unnamed fragment (UC 32118B). This is a fragmentary piece.↑ ↑ 2.0 2.1 2.2 2.3 2.4 ↑ ↑ ↑ ↑ ↑ ↑ ↑ ↑ ↑".
