This book will help you demystify these dreaded word problems and give you the confidence you need to conquer them on your SAT or ACT. Almost like a foreign language, mastering word problems requires proper translation of English into math equations. This not only takes practice, it takes guidance. But once you are fluent, like in a language, it will become an easy task. That’s not to say all math word problems will be easy, but at least you’ll have a much better chance of solving them. So, join me while we explore the world of SAT and ACT math word problems. It’s a journey worth taking.

ALL THAT MATTERS IN MATH – KG-VIII EXPLAINED EXAMPLES – Volume-I – PART II (A to Z mathematics Series)


ALL THAT MATTERS IN MATH – KG-VIII EXPLAINED EXAMPLES – Volume-I – PART II (A to Z mathematics Series) by SANDEEP SRIVASTAVA
English | 2022 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B0BHL9H4TF | 286 pages | PDF | 7.22 Mb
A to Z of Mathematics – The Family Edition Did you know that 14 years of K-12 math curricula could be judiciously packed in 14 hours? We have tried to do just that through A to Z of Mathematics Volume I, II. This is the second book of the KG – VIII mathematics volume, the Reading Book is the first of the volume. This is a unique book of math in many ways, such as – > This is the world’s first book of explained examples that is almost an independent book; of course, the Reading Book Volume I takes logical and critical thinking to a very different depth for each concept. > This is the world’s first book that broadly presents 10 Grades curricula (KG – VIII) in one volume; indeed, mathematics is rigidly hierarchical and logical, there is only that much needs to be learnt as a foundation. > This is world’s first mathematics book for curricular study, arithmetic we study in schools is just a part of mathematics. Pertinently, the Draft Indian National Education Policy, 2019, stated that (true) mathematics has five dimensions: Counting, Arithmetic, Mathematics, Reasoning, Problem Solving. Hope you did register that one of the dimensions of mathematics is named "mathematics". This just emphasizes the core of mathematics – mathematical thinking. ‘True mathematics’ sharpens critical, creative and logical thinking, and makes us better decision makers!
