Today I am still just a little kid but I'm doing 6th-grade math. Now I'm doing 6th-grade math word problems. At first time I can't just do a single problem. But when I saw these videos from you I've mastered it now. I can even teach on social media and even teach calculus at entire primary schools! Thanks Eric Buffington.
I truly thank you for helping us all about word problems, how to calculate sales tax, discounts and how to convert percent to decimals (which I had forgotten because I did it a long time ago)
Wow, thanks for teaching this. It really helped me. When I was a kid, I wanted math to be one of the better subjects, but it was hard to figure out some of these math problems. I've been brushing up on my math skills for a year and have been watching your videos to get a better understanding. I finally get the concepts now and this is a much easier way of doing the math.
You made percentage so freaking easy. I knew how to do it but I still struggled and out of all the youtubers on percentage I got your way so fast. The way you explained it made it so simple. Thank you and you got a new subscriber
All the other websites shows so much lengthy solutions, and when you are giving aion by long solution. ptitude test its not possible to solve question. Thank you so much for such a quick fix method.
u earned a subscriber congratulations. All my life ive been struggling with fractions and percentages and more and you just explained it so well keep it up :)
I absolutely thank you for taking the time to solve this. You're a great teacher and I cannot even tell you how much I struggled with fractions and percents (word problems). This video gives an in-depth on how to do so, it helped me have a clear understanding of what to do. I'm currently in 7th grade and this stuff helps me proceed a higher grade in my mathematics.
Thanks dude helped me so much! I now know how to do it all. I have been trying to find someone who explains it good and you explained it so well, keep it up.
Thanks for the help! I had a 5th grade question about this in 6th grade, beginning of year assignment to check what we know about 5th grade. In 5th grade, we didn't even learn it, since are math teacher had problems with the students and didnt get to complete everythinf we were supposed to. But, this video helped a lot. Thanks!

I applied for a job as Executive Secretary. OMG. The test was 1h 30m. English: spelling, vocabulary, text interpretation, office routines. MATH: massive test on percentage, word problems on all kind of percentage from basic to advanced and very complicated. You have to read over and over, and 1h and 30m flies. Even if you know everything, you have to manage the time, otherwise fail.
@@EricBuffington Thanks, I checked out the video's. However, I couldn't solve some problems such as 47/0.77. You would end up with 601 + 3/77, is there any way to solve this sum without calculator?
Fariha Yesmin With discount problems just convert the decimal of the discount percent by dividing by 100, then multiply with the total price to find the discount price and if it asks for the the total With the discount, you subtract the discount price you got the first time from the total to find the total price with the discount
Ok I know this is super late but instead of thinking about it "dividing by 100" you can think "move the decimal twice to the left" it may seem complicated but it is easier to remember to me.
I have a couple that might help: Percent Discount Shortcut: ua-cam.com/video/55sV8MJ1L_A/v-deo.html Percent Increase in Real World: ua-cam.com/video/Mw2Z6FDR848/v-deo.html
Yes I understand you multiply for example .15 x 25, but you shouldn't always use a calculator or cannot as in aptitude test so maybe show people literally how to multiply it using math not a calc.
If you need help with multiplying decimals, here is a resource for you. This video was not about multiplying with decimals, so I didn't want to slow it down to teach that concept. ua-cam.com/video/PF6r1N6rglY/v-deo.html
Ok so I did it right but I did wrong cuz then I did the 1.50/100...idk why I did that....when I was done I got the total and I'm like...wait...that can't be right...maybe I placed wrong number over wrong number kinda thi.g but....lol why did I do that??
Some one its playing videos in the back,clear pointc my kids dont have any addiction, they study and work, the only thing I pray it's that they come close to GOD.

What if you aren't allowed to use a calculator?
Do the multiplication by hand or use long division. I have videos on how to do each of those if you are interested.
@@EricBuffington Thanks, I checked out the video's. However, I couldn't solve some problems such as 47/0.77. You would end up with 601 + 3/77, is there any way to solve this sum without calculator?
The best vidoe everrrrrrrr
Thanks! :)

Add tax, start at 058. Percent discount decreases start at 3.08.
am subscribing!!!
Nice! Thanks! :)
Um in my class there was a question with a mark up but you didn’t have to change the percent to a decimal
oh, okay.
Eric Buffington I mean you helped me a lot
My teacher recommended me this
Thanks for watching! I hope it helped!
Thank you 🐰
You're welcome!
Thank you so match 😊👍🏻👍🏻
You are welcome!
Is the best l have seen thank you
That means a lot! Thanks!
But our teacher only give us this link
what? xd
It is a little easy at the end of the video
How to calculate the percent thought.. like 25 x .10 in long solution?
I'm not sure I understand what you mean by long solution? Here's a video on how to multiply with decimals. ua-cam.com/video/PF6r1N6rglY/v-deo.html
How do i understand that when do i have to subtract the discount percentage from 100%? This thing is confusing me!!
