Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Practical Arithmetic: Book II
Book two is a complete arithmetic furnishing material for a review and a more comprehensive treatment of the subjects included in Book One, together with the advanced work required for the higher grades.
The book is designed for pupils in the last three years. Of the elementary grades as well as for normal school classes reviewing the subject of arithmetic. The drill exercises and problems aim to give such training in arithmetical Opera tions and relations as will enable pupils to cope with the problems they may have to deal with in the ordinary affairs of business life. It has not been the aim to furnish every kind and form of problem that anybody might have occasion to solve. Many so-called industrial and practical problems present conditions and data entirely outside of the range of experience of the majority of pupils, and are as unreal and improper for them as any that could be devised.
