I PUT OFF BUYING THIS

because I teach math and I thought "Oh, there won't be anything in this book that I don't already know." WRONG! THis book is a browser's delight. As well as giving relatively clear directions on how to calculate a whole bunch of practical things, it gives away such secrets as how to do those annoying work word problems using only arithmetic, an easy way to do those annoying mixture word problems, how to weigh things using only nickels, the amazing relationship between nickels and the metric system,etc. Highly recommended.

Everyday Problems Answered.

This is not a math book, rather its an answer book that describes how to solve those "everyday" questions we tend to have. The usefullness of this book (especially about it's plain english way of describing money issues) is truly astounding.This book discusses in easy to read "plain english" how to solve mortage and loan problems, as well as a large collection of general interest problems for the "typical" homeowner.This is a fantastic book with at least a hundred different problems solved (everything from the true worth of college, to answering annuity questions). I recommend this for anyone who wants to know "How to figure it".
