It is evident, therefore, that the real atomic weight of an element must be some multiple or submultiple of the equivalent; in other words, the equivalent multiplied by 1/2, 1, 2, or 3 will give the atomic weight. ❋ William McPherson (N/A)

Now, compounds are known containing sulphur and hydrogen, and, in each case, the weight of sulphur combined with 1.008 grammes of hydrogen is found always to be either 8.02 grammes or some multiple or submultiple of this quantity. ❋ Unknown (1922)

And this is threefold; integer, fracted, and surd: An Integer is what is measured by Unity, a Fraction, that which a submultiple Part of Unity measures, and a Surd, to which Unity is incommensurable” (Universal Arithme - tick, London [1728], p. 2). ❋ HENRY GUERLAC (1968)
