Whole Numbers to Percents, Level C, helps students conquer "dreaded" math word problems by teaching them when and how to apply the math operations they already know to real-life situations.
The developmentally sequenced problems in each book are arranged so they cannot be solved by rote processes. Each problem requires its own thinking/problem-solving approach rather than applying the same solution process to entire groups of problems.
