I really feel fortunate to have stumbled upon your videos! Math has been my nemesis my whole life! You are amazing and you are making it much easier for me to understand! I am taking the CT state test soon and you are an incredible teacher! Thank you and God bless you! 🤗
Thank you!!!! This was meant to be. I had just said this past hour that I must pick these videos up again after dropping it due to COVID. This will get me through math. I got a 90 on the class test but forgot half of it towards taking the state.
I have a question re this “Jones sold his home for $17,200. If this represents 9% more than he paid for it, the cost of the home was most nearly:?” You said is $15,500 But if you divide $17,200/109%=$15778 Should the answer be $15800?
Yes. Mathematical error on my part. Pinning this to the top, in case others see. Lesson learned, when you do things on the fly always double check your math :)
I took my NJ Broker's exam and had and amortization question. They gave me this: The purchase price a client will spend (plug in a number) with the max monthly payment (plug in a number) they could afford and the interest rate was known at 6%. What is the shortest term mortgage the client can get?
32:01 you can also tel di 35% and minus it from 100 so it would be 100% would be what di building made 4 di whole year profit den minus 35% dis would be di expenses . dat give you 65 percent dat would be di percent of what fi building actually made after di expenses den tek 850,000 times 65% and dat give you 552,500 your gonna pass your test I believe in you
The math problem at 54:14 is not correct. The broker would receive $4275 and the agent would receive $2850 for a total $7125. The 50/50 split is not important because they are asking about what WOULD happen if it was a 60/40 split. I see how they got the answer but it's not worded correctly. The broker is getting a cut of percentage + a cut of the difference.
Depends on what the question is asking. If you are discussing the distance between two points, it would be feet. If you are talking about area, it would be squared, and if you are talking about volume it would be cubic
Stu, no matter how I plug the math problem in for $17,200 with a 9% profit I come up with $1577.98. I cannot get any of those answers. Any idea what I m doing wrong?
I wish he would have wrote out the whole calculation for the 1st question. Because im confused with the calculation. He said the calculation is income/rate x value ... but when youre figuring out what the value would be if it the cap rate was 8% then the calculation changes to income/ rate = value....its confusing
Income/rate x value is the entire formula. If you don't have one of the items, what you are left with is the math you need to do. So to solve for value it would be income/rate. To solve for income it is rate x value. To solve for rate it would be income/value
Depends on the question. You have to understand what it is you have when you do the math. If you plug a formula or equation into your calculator, and get a number....if you don't know WHAT that number is, and can't identify it, you won't be able to know what to do next.
I totally get it. If you ever have questions you can always ask. There are also a lot of other great instructors on TH-cam that explain the math section their own way. I also provide free math guides at mathwithstu.com You can also always sign up for a tutoring session. I’d be happy to help
You're confusing your students by making them guess first, before you start explaining the problem. Why don't you walk through the problem first and then ask them what they think
I have taught this same way for 15 years. I’ve worked with many adult educators and there are several reasons I use this methodology. 1) most adult learners need to move through math problems at a much slower pace. Putting time between steps, by allowing students to make an attempt slows down the process. 2) it’s easier for most students to see exactly where they are going wrong in the problem with this methodology, rather than me just blasting through the problem. I always appreciate the feedback and also recognize I might not be the perfect instructor for each student. If my method is confusing to you, I completely understand and would advise you to try another channel or instructor :)
Hola . I like your classes ,but your don't explain very well also I think you could finish explaining by writing the the question . Go to the point instead talking . Most of us ,we are adults . Thanks 😊
I understand that I’m not going to be the perfect instructor for everyone. I like my style and many students do as well. I will never, and can never be the instructor for everyone. I appreciate the feedback and hope you find someone to explain the concepts better for you.

Wow! PER is divide and OF is multiply! Stu you are the best!!w
Can't thank you enough! The math has been a real source of pain. Being able to break it down to the simple helped a lot.
Thank you Stu for helping us. 👍
This video helped me pass my test!!! Thank you for everything Stu!!
Way to go!!!! Share with others who need help passing :)
nice! Congrats!
@@realestatestu 2 months since passing and I’ve shared this video with anyone I know. Truly grateful!

Math is like jumping into a cold bucket of ice....this is one way to jump right back in lol
I woke up this morning and was so happy to see this. Thank you along with Prep Agent!!!
nice you got this!!
@@ashynv i did!

Was just going to comment this, I spent 20 mins redoing the equation to try and make it fit
In these problems, along with IRV acronym, I also use the PIE chart! Very helpful!
Thank you guys for answering my questions so quickly yesterday:) I forgot to give y’all props

“Pulled it out of your tuchus.” 😂❤️🙌🏻
you are awesome. I have enjoyed this and learned some things! Thank you so much
How to solve the problem
You help me a lot. Thank u

Very helpful... thank you 😊
60/40 split
1425
When a problem has ft and square ft, is it the same. Like with an acre which is 43,560, what times what gives us that answer???
Depends on what the question is asking. If you are discussing the distance between two points, it would be feet. If you are talking about area, it would be squared, and if you are talking about volume it would be cubic
Does L x W only apply when both side of W and sides of L are equal?
5
4. 4
5
4 x5 = 20sq ft
Thank you so much!
What does the part refer to in word problems?
Depends on the problem. In a rate problem there is always a part, a base, and a rate.
Stu great content but last question you forgot to add the water bill
Good catch.
Happens with math. I’m human :)
Stu, no matter how I plug the math problem in for $17,200 with a 9% profit I come up with $1577.98. I cannot get any of those answers. Any idea what I m doing wrong?
Forget it, I see the word "nearly"
@@scottsoriero9827 lol, simplest explanation is usually the right one

@@realestatestu OK THANK YOU for clarifying!
Hi
You're not finishing or stating the answers at the end. Geesh!
How do we know when to divide by 6% and when to turn it into the 94????????
Depends on the question. You have to understand what it is you have when you do the math. If you plug a formula or equation into your calculator, and get a number....if you don't know WHAT that number is, and can't identify it, you won't be able to know what to do next.
Good question. It’s kinda unclear. Does it depend on whether you make a profit or loss?
@@glenb2389 depends on the question. Which question are you referencing
Jones sold his home question....
I got it now:)
Maths just not my thing. I’m more confused
I totally get it. If you ever have questions you can always ask. There are also a lot of other great instructors on TH-cam that explain the math section their own way. I also provide free math guides at mathwithstu.com

Why would you give Stu a low rate? Stu it's so clear in his explanation and teachings...SMH!!
:)
NO clear enough
If you have any questions I would be more than happy to try to clarify
Great information but confusing talk too much ,ask an answer yourself ...a lot of knowledge but in a a wrong way of expressing
this first one totally confused me. Again
