The Consumer Math of Major Purchases:  Classification:  MA

This course is intended to provide students with experience in the kinds of mathematical skills they will encounter when making major purchases as adults. A goal should be to make this subject relevant to students and provide opportunities to apply the concepts in practical applications BEFORE they are forced to apply them on their own. This course has a companion course entitled, “Consumer Math, Everyday Applications in,” which can also be valuable. Either one can be done first.
