    Bro you just saved my ass!!! I'm taking the MCAT in a couple of days and I kept making stupid mistakes due to these exponents, conversions, and log stuff. Thanks a bunch!!!
    Good luck to everyone whose taking the MCAT, don't worry ya'll we'll make it someday!!!

    Something I would recommend including is the addition of inverse fractions because it's necessary for solving things like the Thin Lens Equation or resistors in parallel. Let's say I wanted to find the total resistance in a circuit that had a 60 ohm and a 20 ohm resistor in parallel, so 1/R = 1/60 + 1/20. In this case you would multiply 1/20 by 3/3 to make the denominators the same, so 1/60 + 3/60 = 4/60. This simplifies to 1/15, so R = 15 ohms. Hope this helps!

    something that helps me with logs and fractions is this rule
    log (A/B) = Log (A) - Log (B)
    log (AB) = Log (B) + Log (A)
    e.g log (1/1000)
    i would change to
    log (1) - log (1000)
    0 + (-3) = -3
    don't know if this helps anyone!

    For the last example, I'm confused why the smaller extreme would be 1 x 10^-5. When I did it I assumed it would be 10x10^-5 because in my head 2.7 has one magnitude which would make that a 10 as the minimum? I'm not sure if my question is making sense?

    • @andrewhanna5194
      @andrewhanna5194 4 роки тому +1

      Ex: 10^-4.3
      round exponent down to 4, then simply add +1. 4+1=5. This 5 is the exponent on the 10. So far, we have
      ? x 10^-5 (keep OG sign)
      Now to solve for the ?
      4.3 = acquired exponent minus 0.n -> we are solving for n
      thus, 4.3 = 5-0.n -> n=7
      Final answer is 7x10^-5 ,,,,, this whole process is actually the opposite of solving -log(7x10^-5) which yields 4.3

    how would you do 169/36?
    It's from a problem on khan academy and I just don't know how I would estimate this on the MCAT.
    Here's the problem: Aroldis Chapman holds the world record for fastest baseball pitch at 105.1 mph (169 km/h). The distance from the pitcher’s mound to home plate is approximately 60 feet (~18 meters). Assuming constant velocity, how much time would a batter have to react to Chapman’s world record pitch?
