About the book: This pre-algebra workbook will give all middle and junior high school students the opportunity to review the basic and necessary mathematical skills that are prerequisites for Algebra I. Seventy-one lessons are devoted to basic operational skills of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division for whole numbers, fractions and percents. Exponents, greatest common factors, least common multiples, ratio and proportions are thoroughly discussed. Story problems such as distance-rate-time, fractional parts and percents are focal pints of our review. Working with signed numbers, algebraic addition, order of operations and simple equations are practiced. Many of these simple equations, which contain fractions and decimals besides whole numbers, give the pre-algebra student that extra push needed to begin Algebra I positively. This consumable workbook culminates with distributive property problems, PEMDAS (parenthesis, exponents, multiply, divide, addition, subtraction) examples alongside signed numbers and two-step equations. Answers are provided for each practice problem along with numerous examples of every basic mathematical concept discussed throughout this workbook. Enjoy with workbook preparing for your next mathematical step.

"Gunshots shatter the silence of the night. Dutch Evans- an ex-medical student, ex police detective and rodeo cowboy, who owns a working ranch and freelances as a private investigator is rudely awakened.He finds two of his red angus cattle have been mutilated then slaughtered.
