thanks for the help! i have a test on dividing fractions, multiplying fractions.adding fractions, and subtracting fractions tomorrow! now i really understand. but is making circles and counting to the answer in each group, is that the same as shading in that answer?
I end up here cuz I was trying to help my son with his homework !!!this is a good!!!! I love this guy!!! . me toooI never got this after I watched this video!! I want him to be my teacher!!!! lol
Thanks but for shorter why dont u just say Skip, Flip and multiply u skip the first on u flip the next one and then u just multiply the first fraction and the second fraction
@tayabarbie1030 They both have the exact same meaning; words with a congruent or similar description are known as synonyms. You forgot to put an"a" in your sentence.
i always had a problem with "Zoning out" where i just stop paying attention in a class but the ability to go back or pause is really helpful and if it didn't stick i can just watch again.
lol im 11 and i forgot to bring my textbook home for the test tomorrow. thank you for explaining this. now i understand this much better and i am prepared for my test
Thanks! I'm using your videos to study for my GED. I have a problem retaining the information, but after watching the video five or six times, I'm sure to get it! =D
I am all by myself in the house! The computer was on loud speaker 100 % i didnt know so i clicked on this clip and your deep voice scared the life out of mee!!!!!! thnkzz tho good tip!!
Man, I am a college grad and got up to calc.. I know how to DO the problem but I never understood it until your pizza chart. Amazing how I got so far in math but NEVER understood why but always understood how. Thanks for the videos good sir!
Thanks man, helped me out alot!! Thank you for showing your work also as well, hate when teachers skip steps just because your "supposed" to know the steps already....
Thank-you! I have this test coming up soon, and when I first saw this question in the review sheet, I was like "Say wha--?" Thank-you! You helped me so much! ^-^
U explain so well Better then my math teacher I would profer to stay home and learn I learn much more in ten mins then I do in a double session and it's more interesting my conclusion is......... Kahn > math teacher
@rinabros what he did was 2 will go into 7 three times, 3 is the whole number, then theres 1 left over, thats the numarater, and keep the demonanater the same
i'm taking a course to get my ged right now and i have forgotten all this fraction and algebra stuff. thank you for these simple and easy-to-follow videos. you make studying up on this stuff not so bad lol
Wow for math teachers like you made complicated things so simple to understand. The thing that drop me out of high school was the radius thing that little r and was a little bit confuse about the minus thingy that converted into plus when theres a ( in it. The numbers when there y and x along.
@PeanutButter4214 you are right, he replace 8 with 2 because 2x4=8. actually he did that to reduce big numbers of 8 and 4 to 2 and 1, respectively). to do that 8 and 4 should be divided by 4. 8/4=2 and 4/4=1.
if i may answer... the whole fraction is actually negative, not just the numerator. we just write the - sign up high so that its easily seen and not confused with the line separating the fraction or a minus symbol. example -1/2 + -3/4 or -1/2 - -3/4. you see how confusing that this could be. i hope this helps.
Dude.. This was amazing, I can't believe I never got this in highschool! It must have been how the teachers ezplained it because, as I watched your video, Everything made SO much sense! Thanks man, thanks.
Thanks for your videos, I think you have an error in this video. 1/2 / -1/3 you inversed it but I think you didn't use the negative sign. I could be mistaken. Do you keep the sign on the numerator or does it transfer?
I totaly love you. I wish you were my math teacher. Thanks for helping me prepare for my Accuplacer. It has been nearly 8 years since I was in H.S. so this has helped me a great deal.
I am in Paramedic class and this is the 4th or 5th video I have watched today. Thanks for the help. Your videos are very helpful. Meaning it has been 20 years since I did this kind of math!
This guy is wonderful...I am an ex adult basic skills tutor and loved teaching fractions because they're so easy...I would have hired him in a 'fraction-of-a-second'..LOL
