Prerequisite: MATH 12 with a minimum grade of C or qualification by testing (El Camino College Mathematics Placement Test) and assessment Recommended Preparation: HDEV 101 or concurrent enrollment
Noncredit
This course bridges the gap between arithmetic and formal algebra, developing number sense and operation sense, in order to formulate and solve algebraic equations with integers, fractions, and percent. Algebraic principles are applied to problems from a variety of fields. Other topics include proportional reasoning, spatial reasoning, informal geometry and measurement, coordinate graphing, and informational graphs.

Note: This course is designed for students who passed MATH 12 or who placed into MATH 23. This course is repeatable and open for enrollment at registration and at any time during the semester.
