Need to learn math for your job?Trying to keep up with your kids?Did math in school and would like a refresher?Not a "math person" but have to teach math?Just always wished you could do math?This book is a step-by-step guide that will prepare you with the knowledge you need in order to do basic algebra (no matter how terrible you think you are at math!).You start out out working with basic numbers.
