Supplying interesting and relevant information, this book explains and urges students to solve problems such as, "How much oxygen will be needed for a climb?" and "How many miles per hour will the wind be traveling at the summit of the mountain?" Provides an inquisitive relationship with math concepts, all through mathematical property use
