The following notation is never used
alone, but may be used as required
with any regular schedule number,
e.g., workbooks (—07 in this table) in
arithmetic (513): 513.076. When
adding to a number from the
schedules, always insert a decimal
point between the third and fourth
digits of the complete number.

Standard Subdivisions
 Add (concatenate) to any number
from schedule
 Only one standard subdivision
allowed
 Use —04 only when directed to do so
 Consult table of preference when two
or more subdivisions appear
applicable
Adding subdivisions number of zeros (2)
Types of instructions to indicate when
different number of zeros must be used:
 Notation in the number column
 Footnotes leading to an add table
where subdivisions are supplied
 Footnotes from the add instruction
itself stipulating the use of extra
zeros
