A 2-book bundle that adds up to success in basic math and
pre-algebra
People of all ages -- from students in a math class to adults using math
in the real world -- often dislike ever having to use arithmetic,
fractions, decimals, percentages, geometry, and so on. Math is all
around us, but it doesn't have to be hard. Basic Math & Pre-Algebra For
Dummies and Basic Math & Pre-Algebra Workbook For Dummies with Online
Practice is a two-book bundle designed to help you improve your math
skills whether you're a student tackling math homework or preparing for
a test or an adult who wants to improve their own skills or help someone
else learn to love numbers.
Basic Math & Pre-Algebra For Dummies provides mathematical and
algebraic concepts into easy-to-understand sections. You'll learn to:
- Master addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division
- Wrangle the three E's of math: equations, expressions, and evaluation
- Never fear a word problem again (even ones with fractions, decimals,
and percents)
- Know your prime numbers from composite numbers
- Get your mind around factors and multiples
- Learn the parts of a fraction and how to add, subtract, multiply, and
divide fractions
- Understand scientific notation and how to use it
- Discover the X in algebra
- And so much more
Basic Math & Pre-Algebra Workbook For Dummies covers negative numbers,
fractions, decimals, geometry, graphing, basic algebra (and more), with
plenty of problems so you can practice until your math is perfect. The
workbook is divided into four sections, and you can work through each
one or skip to any area you like:
- Part 1 covers basic math and pre-algebra, including addition,
subtraction, multiplication, and division; operations; negative
numbers; and expressions.
- Part 2 keeps things interesting with fractions, decimals, and
percents.
- Part 3 dives into headier topics, like scientific notation;
weights and measures; geometry; and Xy-graphs.
- Part 4 is all about algebraic expressions.
Each topic is briefly introduced, and you're shown how to solve the
problems in that section. You can review sample questions with answers
(showing how to solve the problem) and then complete practice problems
on your own. Don't worry -- the answers are provided (with step-by-step
details), so you can grade your work. Additionally, online practice
comes free with this workbook, with extra practice questions
corresponding with each chapter. The workbook itself has instruction on
how to register to access and use the online practice.
Together these two books pack a powerful one-two punch. Grab this bundle
to help you wrangle any math problem you encounter.
