Synopsis

Excerpt from Intermediate Arithmetic: Parts II and III

Part II offers a brief rew of the fundamental operations, gives the final treatment to common fractions, decimals, the metric system, longitude and time, and most of the applications of percentage, and places partiar emphasis upon the subject of practical measurements and the plan and purpose of the Postal Savings Bank system.

Part III presents practical short methods of computation, gives adequate treatment to such applications of percentage as do not appear in Part II, and introduces ratio and propor tion, powers and roots, and the measurements of the simple solids.

Much time and energy have been expended in gathering reliable information concerning the business customs and indus tries of the Philippines. This information has furnished rich material from which a wide variety of practical and interest ing problems have been made. The plan adopted in the preceding books of this series, of presenting essential facts in clear and concise form, has been followed in the present volume.

For helpful suggestions the authors are indebted to the fol lowing superintendents and teachers of Philippine experience Supt. E. R. Hay, Mr. Graham Kemper, Miss V. Louise Herrick, Supt. W. K. Bachelder, Mr. W. I. Chapman, Supt. H. A. Bordner, Mr. Peyton Carter, and Mrs. Emma Weston. Thanks are due also to Mr. Benjamin F. Wright of the Bureau of Posts.
