Date: Thu, 13 Aug 2009 20:50:38 +0100 A little while ago, James Frysinger stated that metric helped in the teaching of maths. Does he, or anyone else on the USMA board, think metric, with its decimal graduations, is appropriate for use with algebra? Particularly linear equations? I imagine life would become rather difficullt if you tried to solve linear equations with decimals rather than with fractions? _________________________________________________________________ Get your vacation photos on your phone! http://windowsliveformobile.com/en-us/photos/default.aspx?&OCID=0809TL-HM
