Business Mathematics for Government

A lightweight preparatory course covering arithmetic, algebra, basic statistics, and applied government mathematics. Designed for professionals whose strengths are verbal rather than numeric. 100 practice exercises with worked solutions.

Business Mathematics for Government refreshes the mathematical skills needed for the study and practice of public administration. It is designed for candidates whose strengths are verbal rather than numeric — those who may not have practiced mathematics recently and who need to rebuild confidence with numbers.

The course covers four areas: arithmetic, algebra, basic statistics, and applied government mathematics. Each section includes worked examples, practice exercises, and an answer key with worked solutions.

The course is self-paced. The candidate should work through the sections in order, attempt every exercise before consulting the answer key, and re-attempt any exercise they get wrong.
