LESSON 2
SUMMARY
This completes the use of quantity-distance tables to solve problems involving safety standards. After
you take the review exercise and you feel you are fully capable of using these tables, you are ready for
the final examination. If not, go back and review those areas that you do not understand.
REVIEW EXERCISE
Use the extracts on pages 51-64.
