You're an Aussie legend. Your channel has helped me so much and given me confidence I never previously had. You are also used in the school I do work experience in so good one all around!
its a cool trick, i tried it with different denominators because he kept using only numbers followed in the 5 times table. It works with other numbers but i notice its not perfect tho because lets say you have a test does not allow calculators. That means you will have to figure out how many times a number goes into the denominator to equal a whole number like 10, 100 or 1000. And whats tricky about this is that not all time tables equal to those times tables so you will have to divide to see how many times 1000 goes into blank which causes a conflict here considering if you're trying to find a way to do easier division.
That must be the most soothing math video I've ever seen... Your voice makes it sound like a math asmr. Thnkx, much more smarter and much more relaxed now😁
Maybe a laughable question: But why "x 2", "x 4", "x 8"? Is there an instant way for me to know when I have to multiply by 8 instead of 2 for instance? I was never that good at maths, but would like to catch up! 🙂
He said it. You just have to listen carefully with both listening ears. You times by 2 and then divide by 10 when the question says divide by 5. That's because 10 divided by 2 is 5. You times by 4 and then divide 100, when the question says divide by 25. That's because 100 divided by 4 is 25. You times by 8 and then divide by 1000 when the question says divided by 125. That's because 1000 divided by 8 is 125.
By this method you can also do any other ones that work For example, you can times by 5 and divide by 10 when the question says divide by 2. That's because 10 divided by 5 is 2. ...But then again... that probably takes longer than just straight halving it
By the way, if you wanna ×5 instead of ÷5, you can do ×10 and then ÷2 So for example, 120×5= 120 ×10 =1200 ÷2 =600 ...Or the other way around 120×5= 120 ÷2 =60 ×10 =600 Keeping the numbers smaller like this is usually better
Great video I actually got my answer correct for the ones we do by ourselves it was actually suppisingly easy I struggle with math so this means a lot thank you
Here is an interesting fact (when it comes to division): because the number 10 only has two factors that divide into it i.e. 2 and 5 you can focus on using just these multiples of your divisor to arrive at your answer.
Bro I can't thank you enough for all those vids. In my first semester of high school, six months ago, I got a b, now I am sure I'm getting a A because I am better than my teacher now, lol
You can still do it by multiplying the numerator and denominator by 10 divided by the denominator, so (n * (10/d)) / (d * (10/d)). But dividing 10 by things isn't so easy. It only works if the value of the denominator is less than 10 though, but if it's more than 10 you need to add 0's to the divisor, so say for example your dividing by 26, you would do 100/d instead and if it's 266 then it would be 1000/d, and so on.
Thank you, my little bro is getting bad grades, I looked at his grades online by getting into his computer now I can force him to watch your videos to help him in math and also help him by forcing him to do other things so he practices school more than playing fortnite
@ Bruce Wayne, whatever you do to one side of the sum you do to the other. (As long as it's on the same side of the = sign). When crossing over the = sign you have to do the opposite to restore balance so because you are multiplying the numerator and denominator by a number to get to a factor of 10 you need to then divide your answer by the product of that factor. For example we could use the denominator of 20 and say what is 126/20? Well 126x5 = 630 (x10 and then half if that's easier in your head) and 20x5 = 100 (note numerator and denominator have to be multiplied by the same). Then because we've multiplied to divide by 100 we have to move the decimal place 2 places to the left. I hope this makes sense! ;)
Very Interesting that it works out that way... All the denominators for these problems are powers of 5, and the trick seems to be to multiply the entire fraction by whichever power of 2 shares the same exponent as the current denominator. 5 is 5^1 -> gets multiplied by 2, which is 2^1 25 is 5^2 -> gets multiplied by 4, which is 2^2 125 is 5^3 -> gets multiplied by 8, which is 2^3
Correct, works due to each power of two and five is one power of ten. Flip it for multple powers of 5 to multiply by 5. Multiply by 10 then divide by two (half) for each power of 5. Halving (or doubling) numbers is faster than multiply or dividing by 2. Its the same result, however each digit changes to one of two digits depending on the previous digit is odd or not (halving), and doubling depends if the following digit is greater than four. Halving, larger value if following an odd digit. 0 and 1 become a 0 or 5. 2 and 3 become a 1 or 6. 4 and 5 become a 2 or 7. 6 and 7 become a 3 or 8. 8 and 9 become a 4 or 9.
Alternatively, you could embrace the power of fractions, and leave your quotient as it is? What's 63/25? Well, 63/25 of course. You can always simplify too, if you can. What's 315/25? That is 63/5, an exact answer.
A buddy gave me a math problem back in high school, 2697/ 3 Answered him within 5 seconds! It's all about rounding which is sort of what he is doing... 2697 was close to 2700 which I knew was 900. Minus the 3/3 gives you 899. simple really!

This only works if you have denominators that are factors of 10 or 100 or whatever. Its useful and i thank you for that but do u have any other method that works for any random fraction like 3/8 or 13/19
It's coming from 10 and 100 and 1000. 25 x 4 = 100, he's diving by 100 to get the answer. Just like 125 x 8 = 1000, this time, he's using 1000 instead of 100.
