    Course Description
    The General Mathematics course introduces fundamental math concepts. The topics include whole
    numbers, operations on whole numbers, fractions, decimals, ratios, rates, and proportions. The focus is
    on learning the computational procedures and then applying the skills to problem solving in applications.
    These topics set the stage for the study of percents, measurement conversions, finding dimensions in
    geometry, computing statistics, and solving algebraic equations. General Mathematics Part I includes four
    multiple choice lesson exams and a midterm multiple choice exam. General Mathematics Part II includes
    six multiple choice lesson exams and a multiple choice final exam.

    Course Learning Objectives


    Upon completion of this course, you should be able to:

     Understand whole numbers and the four basic operations: addition, subtraction,
    multiplication, and division.
     Understand what a fraction represents and how to add, subtract, multiply, divide and convert
    fractions.
     Understand what a decimal number represents and how to add, subtract, multiply, divide, and
    convert decimal numbers.
     Understand how to use ratios, rates, and proportions.
     Understand what a percent represents and how to add, subtract, multiply, divide, and convert
    percentages.
     Understand and use the U.S. system and the metric system.
     Understand the size, shape, and properties of objects. These properties include the length of
    sides, angles between sides, perimeter, area, and volume.
     Construct a histogram and find the mean, median, and mode of a data set.
     Understand what a signed number represents and how to add, subtract, multiply and divide
    signed numbers.
     Organize and solve many real-world problems through the understanding of variable
    expressions.
