    Just going trough this Playlist of math shows hoch much I've forgotten... And how fun Math can be if it is explained in clean language (as opposed to overly complicated technical terminology as used by teachers that consider math a 'filter' to sort out 'bad students')

    111 prime factors: {3 ,37}
    21 prime factors: {3, 7}
    multiply common factors 3 X 3 = 9
    9 not a factor of either. Why is that?? I'm confused.

      That had me scratching my head for a while too. I eventually realized that there's only one 3 between both sides, not two. The two 3's you end up with sort of combine to represent a 3 that's common to both sides. So you end up with 3, not 3 x 3. Not sure if that explanation makes sense.

    • @dark_colour5204
      @dark_colour5204 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      I think it’s more so that math is relatively easy if you learn the concepts step by step but schools fail to teach or students fall behind and then struggle later on with comprehending the concepts.I mostly use these videos as a review so I don’t get left behind because of some slight issue that I didn’t notice previously

  • @vdvoskin1
    @vdvoskin1 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    again, there is a much easier way to find the GCF, just keep dividing both members by the same number provided that it yields a whole number, and after, just multiply the numbers that you divided by. For example, 24 and 90: first division is by 3-> 24/3=8 & 90/3=30, second division is by 2-> 8/2=4 & 30/2=15, cannot divide any more, so time to multiply the numbers used to make divisions, which are 3*2=6

    • @yotelolailo
      @yotelolailo 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      That's actually the same. Prime factors are factors of both members, and then you just multiply the common factors of both.

      because he explains what you need to know and why we need to know it rather than in class teachers, they can say the most arbitrary things and just expect the student to absorb it.

    • @itsallaboutfeeling
      @itsallaboutfeeling 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Finding GCD is indeed easier with Euclids method if your good with calculating big numbers in head or using a calculator. I find this method easier because since you break it up into smaller numbers.
      I found this video that instructs how to use Euclids to find first GCD and then LCM:

    • @itsallaboutfeeling
      @itsallaboutfeeling 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I must correct myself on which is easier or better.
      On the comprehension test 24 and 90 was easier with shown method.
      But with the 72 and 168 it was easier for me with the Euclidean.
      For the 21 and 111 Euclidean was easier because it was kinda hard to figure out 3 * 37 and then finding out that 37 is a prime!
      The last one was very fast and easy with Euclid method!
