c35.25

In our example, the mean tithi ended at 8·86 days after Kārttika New Moon. The age of the first new moon in the solar year being 20·27 days, the corresponding Nakshatra correction is (by Table XI) 1·50 + ·02 = 1·52 = (by Eye-Table) 1 day 31 ghaṭikas and the Yoga correction (by Table XI) 2·78 + ·04 = 2·82 = 2 days 49 ghaṭikas.
