    I'm 55 years old, and somehow I managed to scrape through without ever knowing how to work out percentages. My eldest asked me to help her with percentages and I found this video. I can't believe it's so simple! Thank you!

      Don't feel bad. I'm in my 50's too and I have forgotten a lot of the math that I learned because I don't use it on a regular basis as an adult. Keep practicing. You'll get better. Best wishes to you.

    I always struggled with the divide by 100 method, but the 10 & 10 method is so much better for me.
    Thank you dude.

    I wish you were my math teacher at school, you explain things so well. I hated math because the teacher was so strict and shouted at you if you were wrong. Kids were scared to ask questions because he would get mad if you didn't know how to do things. This was in the 70s & 80s though

I never knew how to do percentages and never learned it once in school so whenever i was met with the challenge of figuring out a percent i would either just guess or google/calculate it if i could. Now i know how to do these problems for my actual asvab test later this week!

  • @SIMPLEisWIN
    @SIMPLEisWIN Год назад +1

    The only problem i have with this is when you take for ex. 24% of 60 div by 10 = 2.4 x 6. The 2*6 is easy enough to calculate (12). But the 0.4*6 is also just 40% of 6. And i find it hard to do in my head... In that case i could just do the whole problem like this 24% of 60 as 0,24* 60... But yeah, everything ells makes alot of sense. Thanks :)
