Thank you so much. This is an amazingly helpful strategy. I'm trying to improve my mathematics to improve myself. Word problems have always intimidated me without some kind of step-by-step template to follow. I feel better now thanks to your video.
But are you sure that word problems means the math? There are multiple ways how to explain math, so does it mean that you cannot understand math if you dont do well in word problems?
I was forced to watch this TmT but the way you explained it all was amazing! I love how you broke down the parts of it. And your sense of humor on this whole thing too, thanks for helping :D
im taking a asvab test tmr. there's gonna be every kind of math problem. im so nervous the anxiety is killing me. i feel a little more comfortable knowing this. thank you
I came here to research about my presentation about solving the word problem (in hyperbolic groups) and even though it was not what I was expecting I really enjoyed the great video haha thank you!
Thank you so much for explaining it! Grade 5 Math can be hard but anyways thank you so much rhis helped me alot especially during corona virus pandemic 🥰 stay safe! Kuya Eric! (Kuya means older sibling or older person in filipino showing respect)
This video help me a lot so thank you. I have always been good at math since I was a kid but when it came to word problems I wasn't very good at it and I needed practice but I will use this strategies for word problems and multi step.
Thank you very much, I have a very important question, please, when I put a picture in the word file, after several days or many weeks the pictures disappear , but words and tables are normal. What do I do because necessary for the master's thesis?
Great video, using it in our elementary school math club today. One nit pick, units are important (and are actually emphasized in current curriculum). Leaving off the units is an incorrect answer for my students. So in the first problem hamburgers shouldn't be crossed out as it is important info.
I'm trying to figure out: If I have a box with 50 slots in it, each slot holds 70 of only one item, and each time I put items in the box it's always 6 apples and 5 oranges every time. How many apples and how many oranges will fit in the box?
I would have went with 12 because half of 24 is 12 but you got 6 because you did it twice. I would need more explanation on when to divide twice by half with those kind of word problems.
This was based on a sample question I saw on a standardized test. Because it was a work week, they counted it as 5 days (Monday - Friday) and so I made that question like that to show for my students in case they came across a question like that.
I don't under stand in question 2 where "I spend 5hours in class each day" how you got 5x5=25. If it's each day in a week, should it not be 5x7=35 hours instead of $25 ?
Thank you for uploading but I got confused on the second question and went ahead answered it before you gave the answer. My answer was 35 the reason why I got 35 is because week consist of 7 days then I multiply 3x5 which gave me the answer of 35.
That is the part of the question I tried to explain in the video. Because it is weekdays, not weekends, the week is 5 days. I saw a test question like this on a released standardized test question and I wanted to address it here so people could be prepared.
I copied that question from a state test because it was something that threw off a bunch of my students and I wanted an example posted that showed what the state test was expecting.
Hey, can u do more of these word problems they REALLY help me alot

i used to hate math but now and because of eric buffington i love math. Thank you
This comment just made my day! Thanks so much for sharing! :)
Thanks! This really helped me with my studying. Now, I have a better understanding of problem solving.
You are bestest Teacher 💛✨
I was forced to watch this TmT but the way you explained it all was amazing! I love how you broke down the parts of it. And your sense of humor on this whole thing too, thanks for helping :D
Thanks for the comment. :) Glad it wasn't too bad watching a math video :)
THANK YOU!This video was so helpful,you broke it down, went through carefully and explained!well done sir,you really helped me :)
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for this video this is gonna help me on my exam next week. God Bless
Best of luck! :)
5:31 is wrong because it ask per week and 1 week = 7 days so 5×7
I used that example on purpose as I saw it on a standardized test. The school week or work week is typically 5 days, not 7.
But a week=7days
Eric you the Goat at first I was like hmm but you made it fun was laughing and learning at the same time
So glad you think so! Thanks for the kind words!
Thank you for your lesson 😊😊
Please do more math word problems!
You bet! New videos coming starting soon.
@@EricBuffington YESSSSS! Wahoo!

Word problem is a flavour of a language. Normal people dont talk like that and matematitions are lazy to talk like normal people.

That's long
Thank you very much, I have a very important question, please, when I put a picture in the word file, after several days or many weeks the pictures disappear , but words and tables are normal. What do I do because necessary for the master's thesis?
Save it as a pdf then the pictures will all stay forever.
@@EricBuffington Thank you so much for the response, but I have to have a word copy for thesis

Ahhh, good point! Thanks for sharing! Have fun with math club!

I'm trying to figure out:
If I have a box with 50 slots in it, each slot holds 70 of only one item, and each time I put items in the box it's always 6 apples and 5 oranges every time. How many apples and how many oranges will fit in the box?
Answer:
1,884 Apples (27 slots)
1,570 Oranges (23 slots)
May not be exactly correct but it's close I think. lol
Thanks with this it rly helped me
Glad it helped
thank you!! i subbed cus you saved me
Thanks for the sub!
excellent video. thank you
Glad you liked it!
Thank you sir for making this lesson super fun and enjoyable.
Thank you 😊😊❤❤
This video was posted long time ago but is very understandable I cant wait to write by exam tomorrow thank you sir :)
Hi UR videos are amazing pleas keep posting often cut UR the reason I'm nailing school:)
Why did u times by 5 if it said each WEEK
I explained in the video it is a work week.
Go go go helped ALOT
I messed it up thinking there were 7 days in a week, and because class is defined as every day.
Yup that is a common thing to do. Keep up the good work! :)
Yes
As in India we have 7 days in week where as in america 5 days in a week
In where I am there are 7 days
You cannot assume that classes are 5 days. Many classes are on the weekends so it must be clarified as to how many days in the week are classes held.
Thank you ❤
I would have went with 12 because half of 24 is 12 but you got 6 because you did it twice. I would need more explanation on when to divide twice by half with those kind of word problems.
Yes, but no. You have 24 hamburgers, and YOU and your dog ate half. It makes sense by using dividing by 2 twice. I didn’t explain it well but whatever
Sorry but I'm confuse for the question #2. Week is equivalent to 7 days. So 5 hours x 7 days (week) = 35 hours in a week.
This was based on a sample question I saw on a standardized test. Because it was a work week, they counted it as 5 days (Monday - Friday) and so I made that question like that to show for my students in case they came across a question like that.
@@EricBuffington So once we saw similar question, we should assume 5 work days make a week?
Mr Buffington your very funny and my mum says hi
Hi! 😁
I don't under stand in question 2 where "I spend 5hours in class each day" how you got 5x5=25.
If it's each day in a week, should it not be 5x7=35 hours instead of $25 ?
25 hours not $25. Typo error
The reason for the number five is because we only go to school 5 days a week.
Eric Buffington we?
Jody Sett u Go to school for 5days of the week DUH
Jody Sett exactly what i thought
This ones too easy. Can you do another one with more word problems added please?
I have several videos about different kinds of word problems you can search on my channel.
Hello buffongton you math problems help me so much thank you
Love to hear it! Thanks!
Your video helps me thank you so much ❤️ stay safe
Thank you! You too!
This helps me alot thanks
Happy to help
lol never knew we spent 25 hours in school only in 5 days
Lol this really helped
Great
My guy I rlly love your humor 🤣🤣

i just got 14/15 in my quiz because of you (thank you)
Your funny and helpful at the same time
Thanks!
Thank you so much I wasn't good at solving word problems
Happy to help
3:50 I thought it would be 0 because if you had 12 burgers left and the dog ate what was left. there wouldn’t be any left because the dog ate them
The second problem has issue it asks how much time per week not how much time in 5 days,
I copied that question from a state test because it was something that threw off a bunch of my students and I wanted an example posted that showed what the state test was expecting.
Thank you for this good video this really helped
Glad to hear it!
this really helped me in math.
cool ok cooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool.
Thanks! :)
