    im a computer engineering student and interested in math. Because of rotten learning education system, i couldn't feel whole about math. So i began to strengthen fundamentals. Your video have been very helpful on this road. Thank you so much!

    This is a good way to understand fractions. Turning fractions into whole numbers make some big numbers though.

    My teacher taught me early, quick 2 minute lesson, she said if u have a problem, lets say 3/4 divided by 2/4, she said to do switch the operation to multiplication, and invert 2/4 to 4/2 and multiply across, getting 12/8 and then I would invert it to 1and4/8 and I can simplify to 1and2/4 and then 1and1/2.

    I think that is a really nice explanation for why it works. Thank you!

    Surely when dividing numerically we divide a larger number by a smaller one. In this example it is not easy to tell which fraction is the larger one. In any case where is there a real life example of dividing 2 such fractions? Maybe a better example to show how the rule works would be to present a realistic problem first.

    I just take a/b/c/d vertically, then make the reciprocal d/c, mentally lay that over a/b, multiply, simplify, and there ya go: ad/bc

    You are so freaking confusing

    • @strafer8764
      @strafer8764 2 роки тому

      It’s confusing because you can’t visualize it the way it’s being taught here and “dividing and counting how many” is not synonymous. The “why”isn’t really explained. People dont teach this with manipulatives because they don’t really understand why it works.
