help all those math people, the college thinks that i should be in a algebra class..i think that they are totally wrong. ok, one question>>> how do you get %'s  if i get it and end up with a number like .875 is 87% or 88% do you round these things off??? and that is a early part of the math that i will have to learn.  i went to the thrift store and bought a algebra book (ok 4 of them) to try to figure this stuff out before the fall class starts. don't get it ..when do you make things negative and when do they become positive...oh help!!!! other than that my day has been great i watched necoles 2 babes and will have them friday am till 8 pm and then again sunday pm until tuesday or upto thursday night. so that will be great that they finally trust me with the kids (natties siblings) i am loving the time with all the grandkids i can see. better go for now but hope to hear from those that know math..jaime

just take the math one page at a time.get the concepts before learning a new concept.and make flash cards or readable notes for reminders.breathe you can do it.have faith.

Math was the worst for me! I can\'t do percentages for the life of me! Good luck, just start from the beginning and don\'t skip or rush.
