9781527894358: Key to Olney's Science of Arithmetic

Synopsis

This book innovates mathematical education by reintroducing the use of the ancient Greek concept of ratios. Separate from fractions, this numerical proportion allows for a deeper understanding of number theory and its significance in real-world problem-solving. Traditional Arabic notation is augmented with the Greek ratio notation, restoring a balance between two fundamental concepts that enhances mathematical education in ways that have not been seen in modern times. The author endeavors not only to demonstrate the depth of ratios but also to provide a practical means by which they can be integrated into real-world problem-solving.
