Synopsis

Even with calculators and spreadsheets, there is still a need for basic math skills. When workers do not have the ability to perform the basic computations required in business, both the worker and the business suffer. There is a growing emphasis in education at alllevels to ensure that students learn the skills that are required in the workplace. The U.S. Department of LaborUs SCANS report was set up to help identify these skills. Business Math Using Calculators provides the opportunity to review basic skills and apply them to personal and business applications.
