Answers to Ditto, 6d. EDINBURGH: TWEEDDALE COURT. THIS Manual, which is a Sequel to Practical Arithmetic for Junior Classes, is intended for the use of those who have mastered the Fundamental Rules in Simple and Compound Numbers. Considerable space, in accordance with the importance of the subject, has been devoted to the explanation of Fractions; and the other branches also have been illustrated with a view to practical instruction. The Exercises, which are copious and original, have been constructed to combine interest with utility. They are arranged in distinct Sections, and are accompanied with Illustrative Processes. As the work is essentially practical, the explanatory remarks in elucidation of the various processes are more of an applicate than an abstract character. The Answers to the Exercises in this Manual are published in a separate form. |
