ABSTRACT

To operate a waterworks and to pass the examination for a waterworks operator's license, you must know how to do certain calculations.

6.1 INTRODUCTION

A S the introductory statement points out, without the ability to perform basic mathematical cal-culations, waterworks operators would have difficulty in properly operating a waterworks and have extreme difficulty in passing a waterworks operator's licensing examination. In reality, most of the calculations operators need to know how to perform (especially at the entry level) are not difficult, but operators need a basic understanding of arithmetic and problem-solving techniques to be able to solve the problems they typically encounter.
