Carrying out calculations is an inevitable activity in solving problems in Science. This masterpiece highlights the causes of incompetence in handling calculations in Science. Four stages of handling calculations are explained and Ten guidelines for handling calculations are presented. This is a must-read for every student and instructor of Science.
26. Here are ten (10) guidelines
for handling calculations in
Physics and Chemistry.
27. 1. Read the questions
carefully.
2. Understand the problem
thoroughly.
28. 3. Collect the data provided.
4. Check the units of the given
quantities and ensure that they
