This powerful resource teaches the ‘essential’ connection of arithmetic and geometric concepts with algebraic concepts. Without this understanding, students tend to memorize Algebra I problem-solving steps—which is sufficient to pass Algebra I—but leaves them unprepared for math courses beyond Algebra I and the SATs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlgebra, the essential language of all advanced mathematics, lies at the core of this book's teachings. By delving into the generalized arithmetic that underpins algebra, students develop a solid foundation in the rules governing number and fraction operations, including factors and multiples. This vital knowledge empowers students to move beyond mere memorization of Algebra I problem-solving steps and confidently tackle the complexities of math courses beyond Algebra I.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWithout the knowledge and skills taught in this book, students often struggle or even fail in advanced mathematics courses and on the SATs. Imagine a good high school student who sees a problem like 3•x•y•4 and hesitates to write 12xy due to uncertainty about the rules governing multiplication. Or not understanding how to add 2x to 1\/4y to combine it into a single fraction.
