About the Book

Originally written to be appropriate for any classroom format, Basic Mathematics assumes no prior knowledge and patiently develops each concept, explaining the “why” behind the mathematics. Readers can actively learn from this book thanks to practice opportunities and helpful text features incorporated throughout the text. The user-friendly, spiral-bound format is available with an all-in-one Student Resources DVD-ROM set that includes video lectures for each section of the text, chapter test solutions on video, and the student solutions manual. This streamlined format conserves natural resources while also providing convenience and savings. KEY TOPICS: Whole Numbers and Number Sense; Factors and the Order of Operations; Fractions: Multiplication and Division; Fractions: Addition and Subtraction; Decimals; Ratios, Proportions, and Percents; Measurement and Geometry; Statistics and Probability; Integers and Algebraic Expressions; Equations MARKET: For all readers interested in basic mathematics.
