Master arithmetic through a single, practical course that fuses oral and written work for real understanding.
This classic text presents arithmetic as a single, natural subject split into oral and written methods. It guides learners from simple number work to more complex problems, using practical, business‑oriented scenarios. Emphasis is on thinking through methods and explaining solutions in clear language, with plenty of guided practice that grows in difficulty. The book’s structure and examples are designed to teach faster, more efficiently, and to build lasting number sense.
Topics range from basic numbers and operations to money, fractions, decimals, proportions, percent, and interest, with deeper coverage of denumerable numbers, ratios, and problem solving. It also includes denumerate measures, time and length, and a broad set of applied problems on banking, notes, discounts, and partnerships. The approach marries oral reasoning with written solutions, so students develop both fluency and written clarity.
Ideal for students and teachers seeking a disciplined, time‑efficient path through arithmetic that remains practical and thorough.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, written in 1877, takes on a subject that continues to be relevant for educators today: the teaching of arithmetic. The author, a teacher with twenty years of experience, argues that traditional approaches to arithmetic, which separated "mental" and "written" arithmetic into distinct subjects, are ultimately inefficient and conceptually flawed. Instead, the author advocates for a unified approach that integrates oral and written exercises, recognizing that the underlying mental processes are the same regardless of the method of solution. This book embraces a practical approach to arithmetic, drawing problems from real-world business operations to engage students in meaningful learning. The author also highlights innovative methods for teaching complex topics like longitude and time, compound proportion, and interest calculations. Through a gradual, systematic approach, the book aims to equip students not only with practical arithmetic skills but also with the ability to think critically and independently. By integrating oral and written arithmetic, this book offers a compelling alternative to traditional approaches, ultimately leading to a deeper understanding and mastery of the subject.
