prime ratio n. [after post-classical Latin prima ratio (1704 in the passage translated in quot. 1710); compare ultimate ratio at ultimate adj. 3c] Mathematics (now historical) (in Newton's theory of fluxions) the ratio of the infinitesimal increments of two variable quantities as they recede from particular values; the rate of change of one variable with respect to another (cf. ultimate ratio at ultimate adj. 3c); method of prime and ultimate ratios = doctrine (also method) of limits n. at limit n. Phrases 2.
