11. Τὸ ἢ ἐν λόγῳ ἀντὶ τοῦ παρʼ ὃ ἐν λόγῳ. ἔχει δὲ τὴν ἀναφορὰν πρὸς τὸ μεῖζον· παρὰ τοσοῦτον γὰρ οὐκ ἔχουσι λόγον δοθέντα τὰ δύο μεγέθη, παῤ ὅσον ὑπερέχει τὸ ἓν τοῦ ἑτέρου δοθέντι τινὶ μεγέθει, οὗ ἀφαιρεθέντος εὑρίσκεται καὶ ὁ δεδομένος λόγος τῶν δύο μεγεθῶν. εἰ μὲν γὰρ λείπει τὸ ἢ ἐν λόγῳ, ἀφ- αιρεθέντος τοῦ ὑπερέχοντος ἀπὸ τοῦ μείζονος τὸ λοι- πὸν πρὸς τὸ ἕτερον ἴσον ἐστίν. εἰ δὲ πρόσκειται τὸ ἢ ἐν λόγῳ, ἀφαιρεθέντος τοῦ ὑπερέχοντος οὐκέτι τὸ λοιπὸν πρὸς τὸ ἕτερον ἴσον, ἀλλʼ ἔχει τινὰ λόγον. μεῖζον οὖν ἐστι τὸ ἓν μέγεθος τοῦ ἑτέρου ἢ ὥστε ποιῆσαι λόγον. ἐὰν οὖν ἡ ὑπεροχὴ δεδομένη ᾖ, καὶ ὁ λόγος δεδομένος ἐστίν.
