Awesome
@@shajahankallu5649 wait what
I agree with you Anthony. I call this video a good refresher for remebering fractions. I don't recall in any of my school maths classes any teacher say that fractions are meant to teach us logical thinking. School is only good to teach you to learn, expect yu to stay with the curriculum and if you want to really learn, seek help outof school, because school is their to create employees.
Thank you so much. I was peppering for exam and didn’t know how to do it fast because I was sick when we were taking notes. This should help me in the exam. Fingers crossed 🤞
So glad I found your channel. My son hated maths in school so am now homeschooling. With your video's im certain he will now be ahead of those actually in the school system!! Thank you!
Thanks you’ve really helped me with adding fractions! 😊
I needed a helpful trick to do math portion on my HESI, damn time restrictions. Tryin to find the common denominator wastes time. This is tremendously useful.
Thank you very much this video literally made my skills in solving fractions improve. However how would you instantly add and subtract mixed numbers instantly?
Im in the fourth grade and i was struggling with this but im understanding this helped sm thank you
Thank you 🙏
I understand a lot now thanks so much wish the best for u😍
Thanks you helped me a lot
Thx so much now I'm 2 years ahead
Thank you for this! I always forgot how to do it when my teacher explained how
tysm
Thanks
You’re the best
Hello. Is the reason you aren't doing the same with the previous adding example on the last adding example { when you see, if a times table fits into it, and if not you see how many times the denominator goes into it} ending up with example ( 1 -1/12 because in the last example the denominator with bigger than the nominator? so you just keep it how it is ?
This has nothing to do with a fast trick, but the standard basic method ! : )))
Good
Very easy
but... but... that is how I was taught to do it in the first place!!! :P
Isn't it what is taught in schools? I was taught this and did my friends and family
You must be left handed.
I’m helping my niece with school and when she needed help with fractions I panicked lol so I came to the youtubes and found this guy. He taught me in 5 minutes what many teachers back in the day tried to teach me, and failed miserably, in whole school years lol. Oh I’ll be back I promise
Thanks for helping your niece. We'll done and I'm glad it helped.
@@tecmath would it work with subtraction?
@@insertnamehere5864 yes, you just have to subtract the two multiplications. So for example 1/4 - 1/3 will be (3-4)/12. So instead of adding 1x3 + 1x4 as seen in the video when adding the fractions, you only subtract them.
What sorcery is this? I was taught a super long, hard way when I was in...not even going to call it school anymore.
Are you confused or just sexy?
Ils exactly the method you learned at school...
@@christopheabraham199how do you know
@@sherbert2553 there s no others...
@@christopheabraham199trust me its not for me
I always found math difficult but as I grew older I wanted to learn how. You have made what seemed hard for me to understand refreshingly simple. Thank you.
I searched for so many ways to do it but this just helps
This method is still essentially the same as what I was taught at school with lowest common denominators (LCM) . In the first example, 12 *is* the LCM of 3 and 4. In the second, 15 *is* the LCM of 3 and 5. So I don't really see much difference here. It just bypasses finding the *lowest* common denominator and replaces it with the *easiest* one.
This approach could then give you difficulty with for example adding sixths and thirds, the LCM of which is 6, but we would end up with a denominator of 18 and the result would need reducing.
It is the same method - it just points out the short cut possible - which heaps of people do not see. Thanks for the comment :)
Yes true, that's why it's best to know both ways so we can choose according to the situation :)
:D
Your cool bra😎
But you just simplify in the end
This is how I have always thought of doing fraction addition but you gave me such a good template to help out my family who are now homeschooling their children. A super concise and plain explanation of something I could hardly put into words. Thank you so much!
guys, im smiling so hard right now, i had a rollercoaster of emotions while studying, i decided to search this, and i literally did the maths, and this method is effective, REALLY effective
When I saw this come up on my feeds I remembered being scared of maths as a kid, consequently being ridiculed by my mum and dad and teachers couldn't help as I was so scared to learn!
I'm 45 now, and although I don't have to use much of this in my daily life, I'm going to try to teach myself again, and enjoy the practicals rather than be ruled by fear. Hope it helps the kids out there!
its amazing how you can come back after years of dreading maths in school to actually enjoying it and learning a great deal. I remember being a teen in high school and hating going to math class, now after watching your vids and many others, I am fascinated with maths and wish to learn more and more!
Thank you for this video. It really helped me in adding fractions. It's a very easy technic.:3 thx
You've helped me so much with my fractions over the past month. I'm so glad I found you.
oh my god. i love fractions. especially the metaphor with the pizza between sharing it before ppl. i will be watching this and sharing it on my own. have a great start of the week.
Thanks i literally am trash with fractions / remembering them and i can remember easy things like this.
This works with relatively prime numbers in denominators.
Let's say we have 1/14+1/6. We're going to try and make the denominators relatively prime.
We choose the greatest common factor of denominators, 14 and 6, which is 2. We divide the denominators and the do the trick in the video. Then we multiply the denominators with the GCF again. Done.
Example:
1/14+1/6
= 1/2 × (1/7+1/3)
= 1/2 × *(3/21+7/21) --> the trick*
= 1/2 × 10/21
10/42
How have I never thought of this?? Like, I already did it (multiplaying the lower ones) but i usually divided it by the lower ones again to see the increase ratio, and I feel lime I kinda knew it but when I thought over doing it it felt different... idk...
Oh I get it now after replaying it three times lol
first
This method will always work only in you do it correctly, the name of this method is "The Butterfly Method" for those who didn't know.
Thanks you I love this video I gonna subscribe to your channel and now use this to answer math questions not like many other channels like maths antics he is trash talking and you just smack bang let us work it out thank you man you helped me a lot with this very easy method and the people who put thumbs down nun uh this is great and soo good and specific!
Nice man everybody subscribe now and like this guy is good!
Your dynamic math shortcuts are genius. The only thing I've seen that even approaches your insights was some "Vedic" math in a book called "The Daring Book for Girls." I wish I'd had your tutorials when I was going to school, 1959 - '71.
Is there a different way to do this? I'm sure this is how I was taught in primary school. This is the only way I know lol
I stared at this for a couple of seconds. Then I wondered why I was so rough with fractions. Then I remembered one almost never sees fractions like these nowadays; it would be 0.25 and 0.33 and so on.
I tried to use this technique to my daughter's exam and the answers are always none the of choices..
Try simplifying the answer if y get an improper fraction at the end of it. May be then it will match the given options.
This is Philippines and this is teaching for my homework thanks :)
This is literally the regular way to do it unless you guys learn something else at school !!
thank you so much I can now do my kumon totor math easily
omg u really helped me bro THANK U!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Is there any trick which we can use for more than 2 fractions?!
'Don't worry about finding a common denominator, '
...proceeds to establish common denominator
unreal.... it took this video for me to figure it out. all the others are so confusing
This dude helps me do math faster than my dad left me.
wait i learnrd just the same way in school does everyone not add fractions lile this?
taking LCM of denominator
Hi, could this method work with adding/subtracting three or more numbers or only applies to two?
Thanks for your content by the way. I'm an adult learner retaking my GCSES and your videos have been a great help.
Hope to hear from you. Thanks :)
Idk probably
Dude you rock! Within 5 min I understand now without all the BS. Straight to the point. I HATED MATHS!!!!!!!! Thank you so much for this 😁
can you tell me the application that you used it to make this video?
Wow Thx for your Fraction Addition Trick! I am literally able to solve any Fraction Sum..Thx tecmath ☺️
Jamal
My guy taught me how to do this in 5 minutes and 30 seconds and i ACTUALLY learned while my
online class in math is about 1 hour and literally didnt understand a single thing
This is not the best method for a problem like:
2/6 + 2/9.
The common denominator is 18. If you used this method you would get a denominator of 54 and need to reduce.
The traditional method (knowing your times tables) is still the fastest way.
I have a test on adding fractions this really helps thank you
Can someone please tell me how he go the answer on the 2nd problem? Cause when you multiply 19 x 15 the answer is 285? How did he get 1-4 over 15 ? Im lost i gotta take a best in 2 hours and i know nothing about math
This just works when the denominators are co-prime not useful for any fraction. But still good observation.
You are so so good at math
Im taking board exam and I'm watching this
So I tried adding this way for a couple of fraction problems involving three fractions. And it doesn’t work. The easiest thing for me and recommend it is to convert all to decimals and then add.
I found this out a while ago in primary school by experimenting, the lengths you go to when you're bored...
I have always struggled with math. You are THE BEST teacher!!!!
I can remember getting probably caned by the headmaster at primary schools, for not understanding , how to do these. If only this guy had been the teacher.👍
so this is not an April fool's joke
it is now.
not i mean
Thank you so much! I was so stuck with adding fractions! But after this I’m amazing at it, thank youuuuuu :)
It's basically cross multiplication pretty simple but he's teaching it so good it seems I am learning a new and easy method 😌
feeling happy that i already knew this trick bc i figured it out while doing excercies. :))
Who else is only watching this vid BECUASE your mum sent it to you and is starting at you watching you watch
I thought there was a faster method than this lol. I was waiting for the trick lol I got scammed. I was sick of adding big fractions.
Dude img tysm,I’m a 5th grader wanting to get into Yale tysm😊
This is pretty much the way we all learned it.
Do they not teach fractions in school anymore?
:)
DAyum Ur voice is DEEPP btw thanks For the tutorial 👌👌
Thank you! These people been teaching me the hard, long way. Bastards.
The only reason why I don't know this is cuz I missed an entire year of school at 2020
I was expecting to see more trickier ones like 1/40+1/60+1/24
Omg thank you so much🙏🏾 you really are a blessing 🙏🏾
Can you use this style in fractions such as:
1/4 + 1/2
and
5/6 + 2/3 + 1/2
as on you tube page
Let's do math
Adding Fractions with Different Denominators
Jan 13, 2018
What I'm asking is... how do you know when you can use "Adding Fractions Instantly," and get the right answer?
Also, what would help is additional parts to your You Tube episodes with Part 2, Part 3, etc, using different example problems to gain additional practice, and gain the confidence of seeing and doing different fraction addition problems--as well Subtracting Fractions, Multiplying Fraction, and Dividing Fractions.
Thus, can you add, subtract, Multiply, and Divide two, three, four, five fractions using your instant method? Or, is there an easy way to find / know when the instant method works?
Thank you,
Use this method only but later simplify the fraction you get and thats it
Thank you ! If only I had you as My maths teacher all those years ago ? I wouldn’t have been such a maths failure! Love you maths lessons! My 10 year old isn’t that keen on maths but actually enjoys your lessons 👍
I am in 6 th grade and I had no idea how to do this until this guy
Me too
Where was this when I was suffering in school?😢 This is so easy! Thank you!
When I do your trick to add fraction it’s not working with 2/3+2/6
I dont get the simplifying part. When he did the 19/15 (19 divided by 15) he said it equals to 1. But I get 1.26? Where does he get the 4? Is there any video on this or anyone can explain please? Thank you
im sorry but I’m not sure what you mean but I’m guessing he estimated the 1.26 to a 1
when do you know to simplfy the fractions and are. the fractions meant to be the big
Amazing stuff
This isn’t much of a trick. It’s exactly how they taught it in school.
I love this Chanel and don’t worry I subscribed❤
I hate working like this but I realised what I was doing wrong great method thanks
This was what I was taught in school. Did common core mess it all up?
what is you need to add 3 fractions how would you do that? Please help!!
This guy
😳 OMG
This is how they teach it in school kinda but with the simplifying after
It wasn't explained enough for me
Wait. Try 2/3 + 3/4. So you method yields 12/12. So that would be 1. Isn't this wrong?
Oops! Found my mistake....
