Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers an introduction to Algebra, a branch of mathematics that extends arithmetic's principles, such as the use of numbers, variables, and operations, to solve equations. Unlike Arithmetic, which deals with specific numerical values, Algebra uses letters to represent unknown quantities. This allows for a deeper understanding of mathematical relationships. The author starts with basic concepts and gradually progresses into advanced topics like negative quantities and polynomials. With clear explanations, practical examples, and a conversational style, the author not only imparts knowledge but also aims at developing problem -solving skills and nurturing logical reasoning in the readers.
