A Computer-Based Investigation in Algebra.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Winter, M. J. – Mathematics Teacher, 1984
How to find and classify positive integral solutions to 1/a + 1/b = 1/c in beginning and advanced algebra classes is described. The computer finds the solutions, but students practice algebraic manipulation as they analyze the solutions for patterns. Extensions to challenge more capable students are included. (MNS)
