Basic College Mathematics is an introductory course focusing on consumer and business applications. The goal of this course is to develop conceptual understanding and lay a general foundation for everyday mathematics. Students investigate concepts of whole numbers, fractions, decimals, ratios and proportions, percents, statistics and probability, units of measure, rational numbers, geometric concepts, and beginning algebra. This is a basic course that satisfies the mathematics requirement for graduation, but is not designed for mathematics majors or those needing higher levels of mathematics content.
