About the course

Numbers and arithmetic are an important constituent of math. The arithmetic operations enable one to perform any mathematical calculations. This branch of math is imperative for the understanding of any future, higher level of math.

 

A strong foundation in numbers is necessary for future studies. While topics based solely on this concept are fewer in number, the knowledge of numbers, working with them, performing different operations, rounding, estimating, determining the bounds, and so on are required in every subsequent topic. Any misunderstanding in the basic foundation will affect the later concepts and expected answers.

 

The Cambridge 0580 Extended math curriculum has a heavy focus on calculations, a strong foundation in arithmetic and numbers will provide a smooth transition for any learner. The course consists of several topics that serve as prerequisites for the harder challenges the learners must face in their future studies.

 

The course consists of easy to challenging levels in several topics such as Approximation, Estimation, Sets, Percentages, Ratio, Profit and Loss, Compound Interest, Surds, and so on, to familiarize students with the main concepts associated with these topics. The entire course consists of short video tutorials and practice quizzes that help learners navigate through the content in a bite-size and orderly manner.

 

The course will help students learn the basic concepts required for the Cambridge Upper Secondary Program and revise them. With many learners having different learning abilities, this course will serve as a revision guide as well as enable students to study the content at their pace, while preparing them in depth for the upcoming examination.
