What is Basic math ?Basic math? Simply put | ||||
| , you use basic mathematics almost every day of your life. You use it at home, on the job,or when you go to school. At home, you may for instance have a budget to help manage your income and probably put some money aside. If your monthly income is 1000 dollars, 50% may go to your rent or mortgage; 20% may go to food, clothing,gas, and other utilities;20% may be used for personal items, gifts, and entertainment; finally, the remaining will go to your saving account. What percentage is left for saving by the way? The situation described above is a perfect example of basic skills in mathematics used at home. Believe it or not, you may need many skills in math to keep a budget up to date. In the situation above, you need to know how to add, subtract, find a percent, and depending on how you approach the problem,and/or the context, you may need to know decimals and how to work with fractions. Anyway, 50% of your income is half of your income. Since your income is 1000, 50% is 500 dollars. 20% of 1000 dollars is one fifth of your income. one fifth of 1000 is 200. Therefore, you use 500 dollars to pay rent or morgage. 200 dollars will go to food, clothing,gas, and other utilities. 200 will be used for personal items, gifts, and entertainment. 100 dollars will go to your saving account. My website will attempt to give you a good understanding of the skills in mathematics you will need to do well with algebra.

Basic mathematics skills
Basic mathematics is what this website will teach you. It is designed
for anyone who needs a basic understanding of mathematics concepts and
operations. Instruction is carefully sequenced to follow a logical
order. Concepts are presented in clear, simple terms.
Furthermore, each time a concept is introduced, an example or two that
illustrate the concept will be provided.
Learning math can be a daunting task when you do not have the right
tools or the right materials, especially if you grew up believing that
math is hard and that you will never understand it.
The very first lesson I can teach is to get rid of any negative
thinking that either your teachers, friends, or even a caring relative
helped you build over the years and start believing in yourself.
Math is like a pyramid. Every new skill requires an understanding of
prerequisites to do well.
For instance, before, one can learn how to add numbers with 3 digits, such as
256 + 128, it is important to know how to add numbers with just one
digit or two such as
1 + 5 or 24 + 50.
By the same token, before learning pre-algebra, a good understanding
of basic mathematics is important. And before learning algebra, a
solid understanding of pre-algebra is a must.
My goal and also my desire is to teach you math, but above all I want
to teach you to be free and to be your best teacher.
You will notice that when I teach a lesson, I explain a lot.
I do this to give you a deep understanding of basic mathematics.
Therefore, if you are looking for a quick shortcut, my website is not
for you because it is designed to challenge you and teach you to a
great extent.
In the end, your basic mathematics knowledge will be strong and you
will be very much prepared to handle algebra or any other higher level
math courses!
