What Was The LadyBug For????

Yes 👍
Have always been bad at math, but used your videos 4 years ago to get into nursing school. Have to take another entrance exam for school again with similar math as before. Thought I had saved your videos, but didn’t, and all I could remember was it was the “Australian guy” who taught me- can’t believe I found you again! Thank you so much for making math easy for me! Subscribed!
You're amazing.
Did this at school years ago, you brought it back fresh and nice!
I need college teachers like u, who are enthusiastic.

I'm getting ready to do a test placement for my GED test, this way helps me alot.
Thanks!
:)
Wow I can finally do fractions after all these years. I dont know why I always thought they were difficult. Thank you so much!
But what are you going to use it on? I am 60 years old, And have never had a reason to use this math in my life.
@@patriotjon8535 Well, for one thing just knowing you understand and can solve the fractions is a great feeling and, second, maybe you can help someone else who is struggling with fractions. For myself, I will be confident doing fractions and I will be able to help my grandson if he needs it. I've always been afraid of math because I didn't understand it and I've always thought I was inept at math, but now I know I just never had anyone who knew how to teach it so I could understand it. Have a GREAT day! :)
Don’t you wish more math teachers were like him? I think alot of them need to be re-educated on how to teach math!😁
Exactly right DC.
You make learning fractions so easy and I've struggled for years! Thankyou so much!
I use your video's to teach my 9 year old and he loves your videos! You make easy for him to understand. Thank you!
Where were you when I needed this!!! 55 years ago!!!
When my Teacher explains how to do fractions I don’t get it
Then when this guy explains fractions I get it first try🤣
XD
They really out here spending one.hour to explain this
LOLOLOLOL U MADE ME LAUGH SO HARD I HURT MY MOUTH AND MADE IT CRACKKK!!!!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😅🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
you saved me when I thought I forgot about how to add mixed numbers lol
I'm 50 years old, if this channel would exist when I was a child I would have been a good student of maths. Thank you so much
I’m 62! Thank you for making math make sense. You are doing yeoman’s work!
Absolutely fantastic. Given me the confidence i needed by heloing me understand... Cheers 😃
I'm understanding fractions better now than when I was in school.
That's not surprising. I've seen videos in which high school math teachers (have to take calculus and higher-level math to teach) have admitted that they didn't really understand fractions until they had taught for a while. These days, the standards for math educators have been raised. They actually have to understand concepts, math logic, and be able to see problems from multiple perspectives.
Simply memorizing the standard algorithm isn't good enough, anymore. I've even seen some math teachers with shirts that say, "Math is a language," which is how I personally view it. If you want to have an even better understanding of fractions, I recommend you check out Dr. James Tanton here on RUclips. He is quite creative and visual and does things outside-of-the-box.
I am a 52 year old man and I sucked at fractions at school. Trying to help my kid's I came across your website and now my kid's and I understand fractions. Thank you 👍
Bro tbh you’ve saved me countless times, hope u can save me again.
for mixed numbers I've always resolved the whole numbers first and this way I only have to convert one side of the problem to an improper fraction. so based on your first example:
2 1/4 - 1 1/3 - First I would just subtract out the whole numbers so 2 - 1 = 1
my equation now becomes 1 1/4 - 1/3 - now I convert the 1 1/4 to an improper fraction which gives me 5/4
my equation is now 5/4 - 1/3 now make them have the common denominator, so 5/4 becomes 15/12 and 1/3 becomes 4/12
my final equation becomes 15/12 - 4/12 which equals 11/12
Yoo I aced my math test thanks to you, your awesome bro!!!
THX
Weird I couldn't grasp this concept in school now my 10yr old son thinks am a genius thank God for RUclips.This guys voice will make any one love fractions.🙏🙏
Dude I'm 31 and I just learned how to do fractions from your videos!! Thank you so much
I love the way you teach thank you it helps me lot to refresh I love math.

@@Official_Trey269 wat, even I like math. Just becuz other ppl say math is “mental abuse to humans” that does not mean everyone hates it. It’s his/her opinion. U should respect it.
Thanks THANKS
You have helped me refresh my mind....
I'm a mom with a 5th grader and i need to help her... it's amazed at how far we as mother love our children that it's like me back in elementary.

Good Evening Love this youtube channel ! I've learned more with this guy than i did in school! when it come to fractions could you explain to me how you know when to use the proper method. I just need further explanation on when to multiply and when to divide when it come to fractions problems like these ones. Thank You for your help!
thank you for slowing down, we can absorb much easier.
I'm 41 years old and I've only now learned how to subtract fractions. Thank you.
I love math. My husband who is more of a History buff hates math, but he loves watching your videos and gets amazed when he sees a 2 minute short cut on a problem that probably took him about 20 minutes to do. Love your videos. Keep them coming 😘
Thank you! I understand now and will most likely not have a D in Math anymore😅 Thanks bro, stay mathtastic➕✖➖➗✔
thx this is awesome the minute u taught me I learnt it carry on your good skills
Just shared this with my daughter! I can work these in my head but have very little patience teaching her.

thanks for the lesson
Were were you 6 years ago??!! You made this simple to understand.
Thank You Mate. Why can't they teach this method at school? would have saved me a week's worth of aggravation!!! Now I'm gonna learn to make a Bowtie vs Windsor Tie.... Thanx, Fingers and Toe's Thumbs Up!
Thanks for helping
OMG THANKS FOR THE VID I WISH U WERE MY FRIEND OR TEACHER, I would know everything thanks u got a new subscriber ❤️❤️😜🤟👍👍
So trueeeee
I'm doing my GCSE maths papers in a few weeks.. and i absolutely suck at maths, but this video helped me soooo much! i recommend to anyone that is stuck on any maths subject.. Subscribe to this guy and watch his videos..
Not the best grade.. Because like i said "I suck at maths!" But this did help.. so i got better than expected
JSE I take mine in just over a year, and so far my latest was a d+ which by all accounts is poor. I found this guy 2 days ago and now because I have over a year I feel confident ill do better, as tecmath is better than my teacher (and there are less distractions.)
you know that youre allowed to use the calculator for gcse right?
Well I am over 70 but believe me I do like ur video clip math you are such nice tutorial every thing clear
I hope u teach better then school teacher
Many thanks everyone getting good help
dude you saved me on the asvab man thank you so much bro
Stefan Leutert I’m about to take the asvab now bro LOL
Same reason I’m here! Need to score high for my ASVAB/AFQT.
His methods are so much faster and make more sense, then what I was taught in school.
Victor Alicea did you pass? Lol I passed mine
Xo Xo I’ve been cramming for a few days now. I’m going to take my text over the weekend online at home. Given how I do, I’ll go back to my recruiter with the rest of my paperwork and take the test at MEPS.
I’m going into the USAF, and the AFSC I want needs a high score.
What branch are you going?
Victor Alicea ask your recruiter if you can take the pi-cat that’s a test you can only take once but it’s Easier and if you fail that you won’t have to wait to try again they wil throw it away an tell you you can try when you like but ask your recruiter for more info on it but you got it bro no worries 🤘🏽
The "titlepicture" of this video shown here is actually wrong 🙈
3,1/4 - 1, 2/3= 19/12 and NOT 8/12
dunichtich100 exactly 😂😂😂😂
Right 👍🏻
No it's 9/12
Answer is 19/12........
Yes that's 19/12
Greatest math teacher ever GOD bless you
Thank you so much u are really showing me the way I just started looking at u a few hours ago and I understand very well!!! Your amazing
