A (rectangular) cistern.
The height is 3,20, and a volume of 27,46,40 has been
excavated.
The length exceeds the width by 50. (The object is to find the
length and the width.)
You should take the reciprocal of the height, 3,20, obtaining 18.
Multiply this by the volume, 27,46,40, obtaining 8,20. (This
is the length times the width; the problem has been reduced
to finding x and y, given that x -- y = 50 and xy = 8,20.
A standard procedure for solving such equations, which
occurs repeatedly in Babylonian manuscripts, is now used.)
Take half of 50 and square it, obtaining 10, 25.
Add 8,20, and you get 8,30, 25. (Remember that the radix point
position always needs to be supplied. In this case, 50 stands
for 5/6 and 8,20 stands for 8], taking into account the
sizes of typical cisterns!)
The square root is 2,55.
Make two copies of this, adding (25) to the one and subtracting
from the other.
You find that 3,20 (namely 3-~) is the length and 2,30 (namely
2½) is the width.
This is the procedure.
简单翻译一下，注意古巴比伦用的是 60 进制。这里每位数之间用半角逗号分隔。
一个装水的容器，高 3,20，一共装了 27,46,40 这么多水。
已知长 比 宽 多出 50，求长宽各是多少。。。

60 进制？是不是太蛋疼了

如果是 60 进制 200*150*200=60000
27*3600+46*60+40=100000 |

aka 一元二次方程在特殊条件下的解:
( (x - y) / 2 ) ** 2 + x*y == ( (x + y) / 2 ) ** 2, 算出 x 和 y 的平均值后就简单了 |

`base10 = lambda x: sum((60**(x.count(",") - i) * int(d)) for i,d in enumerate(x.split(",")))`
方便熟悉 py 的同学玩, 不过真的不需要 |

x*(x+50)*3,20=27,46,40
x*(x+50)=27,46,40/3,20 x*(x+50)=100000/200 x*(x+50)=500 (x+25)^2=500+625 x=sqrt(1125)-25 |
