Word Problems: Long-form Word Problems

In this volume, Last Man Standing, major aficionado of the short story form, presents 11 full-length word problems with fleshed-out narratives, as well as 10 of the more traditional short-form word problems. Includes such classics as related rates, calculating interest, calculating how much money is left over after a purchase, as well as probing questions about exactly how to be a hipster, algorithmically, and how to fix the economy. Hours of fun await. Word problems range in difficulty from Elementary to College. Emotionally gripping, by the way.
