1.1 - 1.3, due on January 7

The hardest part of this material was following the logic that was only written in words.  I am a very visual, hands-on learner, so when the author would walk through a proof and only describe the steps he was taking instead of showing them I had a harder time following the math.  I found the many applications to division absolutley fascinating! I never realized that that was how division really worked. I knew division was repeated subtraction, but some of the things the author did just blew my mind! I really enjoy learning things like that.  I like to be able to apply the new things I am learning to things I already know. That to me is what learning math is all about.
