Book Description
Excerpt from A Manual of Short Methods in Arithmetic, Designed for the Use of Schools and to Facilitate the Arithmetical Calculations of Business and Science A very great amount of useful progress has been made, during the last thirty years, in the development of the power of common arithmetic to deal with many problems for which Algebra was wont, less intellectually, to be employed. Algebra has a boundless field for reasoning and operation, in which Arithmetic is only a very humble though a requisite auxiliary; but the employment of the more elementary processes of Algebra to solve arithmetical questions used to be too often resorted to, as a mechanical relief from the more useful work of purely arithmetical investigation. Arithmetic as now taught in the best Treatises exhibits, perhaps, its highest degree of power to deal with the principles involved in the various Rules and in miscellaneous problems; but its operations still admit of considerable improvement in elegance and ease; and to promote such improvement is the aim of this Manual of Short Methods. And here let it be observed that, in many instances, the Author's shortness of method consists in the easiness of the workings rather than in the space they occupy.
