  • FOR ME::@~??>>>>>???????

    

  • THIS JUST SAVED MY MY QSAS

  • okay look, im soo making allthese vids my tutor since tomorrow is our math examss...

  • @LeahLaughsAlotHaha Im in the fifth grade and i have to do this stuff. if your a freshman in college why would you be doing fifth grade work???

  • @Ianznutz,

    Im in college too and need help on this. The thing is by 11th and 12th grade in high school, students mostly are so far beyond this stuff that they don't need to use it anymore. Because they don't use it, they forget. In college, they make us go back to the basics again. That's why we need this help. Imagine having to remember basic stuff from 8, 9 or 10 years ago, it's not easy. Actually if your in fifth grade,, 10 years is almost your entire life, think about it.

  • salman I think I speak your language too!!

  • Thanks Khan!!!!!!!! I used to always get them wrong but when I saw this I learned how to convert them very fast! I am in math GT ( Gifted and Talented program) at school. I thought I would never make it if I didn't know how to conver fractions. Thanks to you I am getting better and better at math.

  • thank you so much ... after so much trying we finally understand it.,..!! your a genius we looked everywhere and couldn't understand it god bless you

  • youtube.com/watch?v=eUFkXnaTQk­I Check out my video instead! The answer in this video is incorrect on the first example and my method is much simpler!!!!!!!!

  • Wow... So I turned to tommorows homework. And sure enough, you had one on tht lesson too!

  • I always turn to you if im stuck on homework

  • I am a home schooler, and your videos have been invaluable for my students. Thank you, and please continue making videos on all subjects.

  • I think that what you are doing here is absolutely amazing khan, at the moment I am doing basic math at university and I have learnt about 50% from here, 50% from my lecturers. He is a good teacher but it is awesome to have someone explain it in a different way :) i was so happy when i saw that my university actually recommends these vids as part of extra help, and i plan on utilizing these as much as i can including the physics papers that i am doing :D U ROCK KHANACADEMY!!!

  • thanks!

    

  • omg u r so awsome thank you so much for all the help :)

  • You helped me alot i want to thank you for saveing meh butt. :)

  • You rock Math Dude!!

  • I Hope I can keep this all in my head when I got take my GED math test. I'm kind of understanding it better then when I was taught in school, I struggle big time in math, So I hope this will help me pass :)

  • wow this help a lot for my math test, thanks.

  • I'm a freshmen in College and YOU JUST SAVED MY ASS. I don't see how they let me graduate if I didn't even know how to do this. STUPIDITY ON THEIR PART, because I payed attention and no matter what I never got it. Teachers need to make sure we get it and not just let us nod and smile our whole way through school.

    THANKS MANN (:"

  • @LeahLaughsAlotHaha ...AGREED. IT'S ALMOST LIKE THEY DON'T CARE...lol

  • ughh i hate math so much!!! now i wish i woulda just payed attention and learned this shit like 4 yrs ago lol

  • Thx!

  • this really helped me understand mixed numbers into a inproper fraction

  • In my algebra class now, 2½ means multiply 2 and ½, so the answer is 1

    2½ = 2*½ = 1

    In my brother's class (3rd grade), he uses mixed fractions:

    2½ = 2+½ = 2.5

    lol

  • I recommend this excellent Math channel: ( Mathmatchpoint ) to everyone who wants to become good at Math. He is going to teach you Math the EASY WAY, from the basic to the advanced topics. The great thing is that his videos are categorized within playlists. It is easy to know which video to watch next. This was the least I could do for him (let others know about his videos). Thanks to him, I got 97% on my Math test.

    Go to his channel: Mathmatchpoint

  • i just whish there were a teacher ike you in spainish since you tube is international then again thanks I understand english and your explanations are super easy to understand

  • Hi there, complete idiot here. hmm.. when I do a fraction and the result is an improper fraction, do I reduce first, then make it proper? Or do I just try and make it proper from the start..? I did that with 1/2 + 5/6 = 8/6 so i reduced that to 4/3 which then became 1 1/3. But if I dont reduce first i get 1 2/5. please keep in mind that im a math-idiot.

  • @ryukthekid Nevermind, it was pointed out to me that im an idiot since I didnt notice that its not 1 2/5 but 1 2/6 which is 1 1/3.. HA.. so it doesnt matter id I reduce for or try to make it proper first.. imm go now. Good vid though. 0.o

  • @ryukthekid If** i reduce first** Man, im just a complete fail today.

  • thnx a lot. I went through school, just scrapping my way though maths, but now at college I want to do some serious maths so i am learning everything from scratch and your 10 minutes videos are helping me learn what I shud have learn't from 12 years in school

  • Thank you for this, it's really helping me study for my final exams. :D

  • I've been terrible at math my whole life. I got into college I got a lot better but I have to take this test so I can pass the class and Move onto Algebra and this dude breaks it down so well. My teacher that I had in math for my college class didn't do a lot of stuff on the board and I learn better with a visual aid not so well by audio.

  • @rylkthx

    Im in 8th grade and currently taking algebra.

  • thank you sooooo much! your soo helpful.

  • OK, I have a question. If adding two mixed numbers. And the answer can clearly be reduced, what do you do to reduce it?

  • thank you bro, I was strugging with this subject cuz their's so many mixed numbers, dividing, Xtimes.., adding etc, and im in grade 8 and we got separted in groupes and im in the middle not dumb or smartest, middle and i was struggling until u helped me thnx m8t :), im gonna subscribe

  • at @3:08 he is wrong it equals 128, not 108!

  • @karpethead1977 He's Right... The calculator told me so.

  • thanx dis was relli helpful

  • I'm the 100th good rater!!!!!

    thanks for helping me!!

  • You seem to have an advantage over the "yourteacher" vids which don't explain squat. They are like the fast food of math instruction. A bit more throughness here.

  • I really glad you are explaining the process of these--dispite the fact you sorta forgot the process completly in the linear equations/other algebra segment. I'll be watching subtracting these impropers since I need it for exam.

  • Hi can you post a video on adding a negative denominator with a positive denominator with different numbers.

  • i need help on this problem and it said 4 2/9+ 2 7/9. how do i do that? please help me

  • @ching975 4+2=6  2/9+7/9= 9/9 or 1

  • i still need help because i have a question that is weird like 4 2/9 +2 7/9

    so please help by me

  • Thank you so much! I have a test tomorrow and I didn't know what to do for this, and you helped me so thanks!

  • These video's are great. I'm going to school for electronics, which requires a lot of math. I got lost in math early on in 4th or 5th grade, and of course as I went on through high school, I got even more lost. Now at 31 I'm watching these videos, and a lot of things that I never caught on to all of a sudden click.
