Excerpt from Introduction to the National Arithmetic, on the Inductive System, Combining the Analytic and Synthetic Methods: In Which the Principles of the Science Are Fully Explained and Illustrated; Designed for Common Schools and Academies
The articles on money, weights, measures, interest, and duties, are the results of extensive correspondence and much laborious research, and are strictly conformable to present usage, and recent legislation, state and national.
Questions have been inserted at the bottom of each page, de signed to direct the attention of teachers and pupils to the most important principles of the science, and fix them 1n the mind. It is not intended, however, nor is it desirable, that the teacher should servilely conhue himself to these questions but vary their form, and extend them at pleasure, and invariably require the pupil thoroughly to understand the subject, and give the reasons for the various steps in the Operation, by which he arrives at any result 1n the solution of a question.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores arithmetic, a foundational pillar of mathematics, building up a pupil's arithmetic abilities from numeration to multiplication and division. The author seeks to develop conceptual understanding of arithmetic principles and introduce problem-solving by reason rather than rote-learning by repetition. Initially, the reader is guided through number notation and calculation with both Arabic and Roman numerals, establishing fluency in the core disciplines. The book then progresses through the fundamental operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, providing a robust basis for the study of more advanced mathematics. Ultimately, the insights in this book serve to highlight the universality of arithmetic; its principles and methods are unchanging tools, essential for navigating any field where quantitative reasoning and calculation are necessary.
