The Shulbasutras of Baudhayana, Apastamba, Katyayana and Manava: With Text, English Translation and Commentary c8.t24.11

c8.t24.11

To complete the number 200, Sundararāja's arrangement shows a deficit of 11 bricks. From the western half of the tail 2 B₁s (one from each side) are replaced by 8 B₄s; in the eastern half, 4 B₁s in the middle are substituted by 9 B₃s. Karavinda's deficit of 14 bricks is met in the following way: 1 B₁ in the body immediately above the fifth row of bricks (in the *sandhāntarāla*) is replaced by 9 quarter B₃ bricks (that is, 10 × 10 aṅg²); 2 B₂s, one each from the western corners of the tail, are replaced by 8 B₅s. Kapardi's deficit of 8 bricks can be met by replacing 1 B₁ by 9 quarter B₃s, as in the case of Karavinda.
