Hi Aziza,

I guess you are getting confused by jumbling all the different concepts of math on Algebra, Inequalities and Number properties.
In my opinion, you should take one topic at a time. If your quant is not very strong then start from the basics, slowly built it and then increase the pace once you are comfortable.

For the books since your problem are equation, inequalities, you could start with MGMAT volume 1 (Number properties), then Volume 2 (Fractions, Decimals & Percents) and Volume 3(Equations & Inequalities).

I am not an expert but like you I struggled in basic math in September and slowly getting a hang of it.

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Pritish
