Course Description This course deals with the numerical system, fundamental operations with whole numbers, decimals and fractions, percentage and simple interest and simple discounts. The course is guided by the following principles: the need to emphasize on conceptual understanding more than procedural understanding but not sacrificing fundamental quantitative skills, the need to use contexts that capture real world problems and maximize the use of modeling and visualizing technique and using appropriate technology to solve these problems and the need or engage the learners in reflective thinking and provide them opportunities to think in the box. This course further intends to develop and strengthen the following general skills, problem formidability and solving, justifying and reasoning, evaluating, extending and analytical skills. VIII. Organization

This is a lecture and course in which topics are presented by the instructor and discussed with the students. Series of problems sets are assigned to the students for follow ups to develop mastery of the subject matter. Group activity is conducted to encourage participation and further peer teaching among students to enhance their higher order thinking skills. IX. General Objectives: At the end of the course, the students should be able to: 1. State principles and operation in real number system. 2. Perform operations on rational numbers, decimal, ratio, proportion and percent. 3. Solve Problems involving simple discount and simple interest. 4. Apply knowledge in solving problems in real life situation X. Course Content: Content
