Proposition: Prop. 10.006: Magnitudes with Rational Ratio are Commensurable
(Proposition 6 from Book 10 of Euclid's “Elements”)
If two magnitudes have to one another the ratio which (some) number (has) to (some) number then the magnitudes will be commensurable.
* For let the two magnitudes $A$ and $B$ have to one another the ratio which the number $D$ (has) to the number $E$.
* I say that the magnitudes $A$ and $B$ are commensurable.
