Teaching hex/binary/octal/radix part 1

This is a pretty complicated subject for the people who aren't math nerds. Don't expect to understand it fully after these couple videos. Post any questions you have and I will try my best to answer them for you.

Wiki article is here if you want to try that: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radix

You did a great job explaining place value, you math whiz, you! Math was always my favorite subject to teach! Question & pet peeve: Since "10" represents 2 in binary, why do some people pronounce it "ten?" Keep smilin', annie

[acidfingers]

I think they say that because everyone (at least in most cultures) is raised on the decimal system, so they naturally say ten instead of one-zero. yay math!

That is so cool! It's just building on basic place value that I teach to my kids! That's so awesome! :D

I'm glad you liked it! hooray for math :)

I read your description & I totally disagree for the first part. I'm in 5th grade & I mostly understand most of this, like dividing the number by 2 (ex. 20/2=10) & taking the remainder to the side & going up the list. But, I also learned much from you. Nice video :D!
