Description - Visual Mathematics Series: Elementary Math Problems by Kiran R Desai Ph D
Solving the problems in this book will help demonstrate mastery of the mathematical concepts taught in elementary school. They are represented in a visually engaging manner in order to make mathematics more fun and interesting. More emphasis is paid to problem solving abilities rather than the usual mathematics grind. A visual approach should help bring a learner one step closer to developing the ability to solve real world problems. Problems presented in this book include: Finding the sum of consecutive numbers: sequential, odd, even, or constant distance Visual representation of single variable algebra Visual depictions for mathematical laws of associativity/commutativity/distributivity Visual partitioning of numbers based on factorization Mathematical constraint based addition/subtraction/multiplication Identification of regular patterns to simplify multiplication of fractions in a long series Computing statistical median and mean under visual representation of data Determining area of interesting shapes based on visual information Graphical charts: pie, bar, stacked, sorted, and doughnut Mathematical puzzles based on various mathematical constraints Multiply and add/subtract calculations for consecutive numbers (A.x + B.y) Determining volume of solid objects depicted using two dimensional views Determining probability of an event tied to object shape/color/geometric properties Enumerating number of distinct ways for partitioning addition terms"
