Nichols, Wilbur F. – Thompson, Brown, and Company, 1899
This textbook is a sixth-grade course in arithmetic. The topics in book V are reviewed in this book. Some topics, as fractions, are completed as special subjects; and others, like percentage, enlarged. Compound numbers are completed, and ratio introduced. The latter subject will be found helpful in much of the higher work in percentage, and it has…

Nichols, Wilbur F. – Thompson, Brown, and Company, 1899
This textbook is a seventh-grade course in arithmetic. The plan pursued in this series of arithmetics is that of giving constant practice in those principles already acquired at the same time that new topics are presented. Accordingly, many review examples in percentage are given as the subject is more fully developed. The form lessons, which have…
