Excerpt from The Pupils' Arithmetic, Vol. 4 Part Four of The Pupils' Arithmetic contains a review of the fundamental rules, a rapid, logical review of common and decimal fractions, a summary of work in denominate numbers, a thorough and comprehensive treatment of percentage, and a brief treatment of simple interest. In this volume, as in the three books which precede it, the authors have made prominent the following features: I. A large number of exercises affording abundant practice in the mechanical operations. II. A large number of simple, practical problems couched in clear terms. III. Careful grading of the exercises and problems, and the avoidance of long numbers, lengthy processes, and unfamiliar conditions in problem work. IV. A rapid, comprehensive review of all topics taught in previous grades. V. The full treatment of each topic in preference to the spiral treatment. In Part Four the work in common and decimal fractions proceeds with great rapidity. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
