    Your mental math(math on head) is quite superb. I used to do this. But it lead me to some careless errors while doing it on my head. So i try to make everything on paper. But practice makes it perfect is true in your case i think. Your videos are awesome. Your accent is neat and clear.
    My trick: ( 15% of 200) = (10% + 5%) = 20+10=30 . This trick works well to approximate

    Non-calculator method for solving the 21% of 240 types.
    Just find 20% which is 240/5 = 48.
    Then find 1% which is 2.4 i.e divide 240 by 100
    Add 48+2.4=50.4
    A similar method for 2% and 3%
    Hope this helps.

    • @TheTestedTutor
      @TheTestedTutor  5 років тому +25

      Yes, or just 10% = 24, 20% = 48, and 1% = 2.4. I will do a video on mental arithmetic soon.

    This is the third video I’m watching and I appreciate all the tricks I have learned so far!
    I have a question about “decreased by %” why is mental math of 100-28 then multiplying the result by (140) more encouraged than doing 140*(1-.28) in the calculator?

    • @TheTestedTutor
      @TheTestedTutor  3 роки тому +2

      Thanks Riyam! A fair point. But I still recommend it because with some practice of mental subtraction this saves a couple extra clicks of the calculator. And more importantly if you rely on the calc for everything it will slow you down for almost the whole test so good to get some mental practice in.
