A collection of puzzles and problems which will be of interest to people of all ages with or without a mathematical background. This collection contains eight questions for each week of the year (hence the title - if you were wondering) - enough for one-a-day and a bonus. The questions vary in difficulty and in the length of time they take, but different people will find difficulty with different questions. Edited by Chris Bills Illustrated by John Binns Topics Include: Algebra, Angles, Area, Practice, Problem Solving, Puzzles, Starter, Stimulate

You may have this book to work on the questions yourself or to give questions for other people to do. We hope there will be some questions that you find interesting and make you think about numbers differently than you had done before. We certainly hope you will discover something that you did not know before. Above all we want you to enjoy working on some of these questions. If you don't get interested in a question you don't have to work on it - there are plenty here and there should be something to appeal to everyone. Many of the questions can be worked out with a calculator. It would be a good idea to use one if you can because this is not an arithmetic test. You may prefer to use traditional pen and paper methods but if you are more interested in how to get the answer and in thinking about what the answers tell you, then spend your time on this and not on the calculation. We have given some answers in the back of the book but in many instances there are more than one answer and you may have a different one than the one given.
You should check to see if our answer is a possible solution to your interpretation of the question but also convince yourself that your answer is a correct alternative. We hope there is an opportunity for you to discuss answers with other people and to work on the solutions with others."About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.

paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
