Well paying careers demand skills like problem solving, reasoning, decision making, and applying solid strategies etc. and Algebra provides you with a wonderful grounding in those skills - not to mention that it can prepare you for a wide range of opportunities.
This is a COMPLETE Pre-Algebra guide to well over 325 rules, definitions and examples, including number line, integers, rational numbers, scientific notation, median, like terms, equations, Pythagorean theorem and much more! A Hard-copy Best-seller.
Our guide will take you step-by-step through the basic building blocks of Algebra giving you a solid foundation for further studies in our easy-to-follow and proven format!
Need some practice? No problem. As an in-App purchase, we offer two 'Practice Packs' that will help you practice the rules covered in this reference guide. The PDF's you buy are yours to keep and can be viewed, emailed or printed giving you a great way to get the most out of this guide. **Please note: The practice packs are NOT yet interactive. You will need to print them out and scribble on them with one of those old fashioned pencil devices :)
From our old version:
★★★★★ "Easy to understand This app makes pre algebra easy to deal with... Down to earth explanation, quick and easy to learn"
★★★★★ "An excellent app its worth buying..Thank you for creating this app..I LOVE IT!!"
★★★★★ "Older adult back in school loving it I' m in my 50's and heck deep in Pre-algebra class in college. This app makes for a fantastic way to study while waiting for your appointments in-line, anywhere. The examples along with the explanations are clear, intuitive, and really simple for someone who has not been to this type of schooling for over forty years. AND! I never took algebra in high school. The developer broke it down into several categories similar to my syllabus. It is really great. I contacted the developer and says he is working on a workbook and should be out in a couple of months. I will be continuing to take a class of this nature in summer so this will help. I am hoping he comes out with an algebra 1 too. :-) Thanks Mike!"

Algebra is a very unique discipline. It is very abstract. The abstractness of algebra causes the brain to think in totally new patterns. That thinking process causes the brain to work, much like a muscle. The more that muscle works out, the better it performs on OTHER tasks. In simple terms, algebra builds a better brain! Believe it or not algebra is much easier to learn than many of us think and this guide helps make it easier!
Thanks!
This is a good outlined review of pre-algebra, and to be honest, even though I am firmly entrenched in senior citizenship, I am finding this app to be useful. I'm a semi-retired school teacher who is now doing substitute teaching, and we won't talk about how long ago I studies some of the aspects of pre-algebra! :) When I know ahead of time that I will be subbing for a middle school I find this handy to review some of the mathematical steps that are a bit fuzzy in my considerably-over-21-year-old mind. And happily, it doesn't take as long to get the information back as it did to learn it in the first place. I would strongly recommend this for kids, too, as it shows a sum-up of the procedures. I can see it being used as a companion to a textbook, or for that matter, by itself.
