Description
The Eleventh Edition of Practical Business Math Procedures provides innovative learning tools and real-world examples that will support, engage, and motivate business math students in the classroom. The goal of the 11th edition is to personalize the learning experience for all business math students to promote engagement, achievement, and lifelong learning. The text motivates with the integration of interesting real world examples and photos from the Wall Street Journal, Kiplinger's, and many other business journals. Jeffrey Slater's Practice Business Math Procedures is the most popular and widely used book for this course and it is carefully written and developed to support students with little math experience by providing summary practice tests, numerous exercises, supporting tutorial videos on DVD, and much more.
