Mr. J. My daughter is in 5th grade and she really likes your videos. She understands math so much better after watching them. Thank you so much for posting these.
I swear 5 minutes videos on RU-vid helps way more than my teacher dose! When my math teacher starts talking a have no idea what he’s talking about or if where even talking about math....
Solution listen carefully and do not talk to your classmates so you can hear it clearly and understand it much better. But if you really don't understand it,maybe you have a problem...
THANK YOU SO MUCH MR J, I’m a 7th grader and I’m very worried of being held behind in school. Ima start watching u and practicing every chance I have :)
When you're going into 7th grade and you've been "Homeschooled" your whole life but in reality you just never did anything and dont know basic math skills..:
I swear I have a math test tomorrow and I wasn’t be able to understand the lesson I checked the equivalent and the simplify videos of yours and I am loving this you explain better than anyone.Keep the good work Mr.J
You are AMAAAAZING I ALWAYS WATCH YOUR MATH VIDEOS. HELPING ME OUT ON MY MATH AND IM 35 IDC I WAS SOOO HAPPY I FOUND THE ANS I STARTED TO SOLVE THE REST ON MY OWN AND THEN WATCH YOUR VIDEO TO SEE IF IM CORRECT AND WAAAAHLLLLA I WAS CORRECT OMG🥳🥳🥳🥳😭😭😭😭 THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH MR J. I LOOOOVE MATH
I’m re writing a test right now and I’m in grade 7 my teacher wants me to simplify 10 over 10 and I’m struggling to do that because I am still super confused with fractions so this is pretty helpful I’m just confused on everything at this point 😂
Thanks! I have a test tomorrow and now I’m glad I searched this up and now I get it really easily!! I could never understand my teacher but I learned a lot from you! Thank you again! 😄
I kept stressing out in 5th grade because I didn't know how to simplify or change an improper fraction and now that I'm older and watching your videos I feel so much more confident in doing math!
Mr J is my dream teacher I would love to have him as a inperson teacher he makes this very easy to understand and even more fun I have a fraction quiz tommorow and I did all of my research and studying on ur videos I understand more than before thank u so much Mr J.
Thank you I’ve been doing this since 4th grade and I’m going into 7th and I never actually understood how to do it well I never understood almost any math but this really helps my new school I’m going into seems hard and I’ve been watching your videos to help and it’s making math seem more fun also my class called my old teacher mr j
ME:CHILL...... *NOTIFICATION RING* *CHECKS PHONE* MIND:WTH DISTRIBUTION OF MODULES NOW IN MATH *ON THE LAPTOP QUICK* *GOES TO MODULE* *FINDS THE SIMPLY FRACTION* *SEARCHES RIGHT AWAY* AND FOUNDS THIS THANKS FOR THE VID
Me wondering why he isn't the greatest math teacher yet I have a test tomorrow and idk fractions but ur helping me catch up a lot since fractions are really hard for me TYSm Mr.J
Thank you so much! I have struggled with math my whole life and am currently upgrading my math so that I may get into the Nursing program. At 33 years of age it is finally making sense! It is all about the patience of the teacher and the methods which you use. Thank you :)
Wow, that's awesome to hear! I'm glad this brought you some clarity on the topic. You're very welcome. Good luck with nursing school. I wish you the best moving forward! Thank you for taking the time to write a comment and the positive feedback.
After re-enrolling in college, I've needed to relearn how to do everything without a calculator. Thank you very much for these easily digestible videos. 👍
Thank you very much! This video really helped me to understand my homework 😅. Before I whatched this video I couldn't really understand how to simplify fractions and I kept getting it wrong. But right after whatching this, I was way confident! Once again thank you!!!!
HOW TO SIMPLIFY FRACTIONS THE EASIEST WAY: If the difference between the numerator and denominator is 1, the fraction cannot be simplified. A. Ask: does the numerator go into the denominator evenly (i.e. without any remainder)? If yes, proceed to B. If not, proceed to C. B. Great! The simplest fraction is 1 over the number of times the numerator fits in the denominator. (e.g. 20/60, 20 fits evenly 3 times, hence 1/3.) C. Write the remainder, (e.g. 20/46, (20 fits 2 times in 46, with a remainder of) 6.) to the right of the fraction, and ask: does the remainder go evenly into the numerator? If yes, proceed to D. If not, proceed to E. D. Great! The "remainder" is the Greatest Common Factor. Divide both the numerator and denominator by the GCF/remainder to have the simplest fraction. E. Write the "new remainder" (using the last example, 20/46, 6 fits into 20 with a "new remainder" of 2) to the right of the previous "remainder", and ask: does the "new remainder" fit evenly into the previous "remainder" (2 into 6)? If yes, proceed to D. If not, proceed to E. Please, (with your amazing talent,) produce a video demonstrating it.
Thanks, you're a life saver,I understood nothing teacher said,and if I went to school without my homework done,I would have gotten a ticket to detention club
Well my Teacher started teaching me this it was like a brain killer , I was so stupid to not remember how to do this so I asked my teacher to break it down to simplest way she know but I still couldn't understand so I came home and Google it up and I found some explanations 🎉 the I was so happy so I went on RU-vid and I found your video ❤❤🎉
Hay (Math with Mr.J)I am 11 and I am writing S.E.A, in a little while, so I just wanted to say, that your work is really helping me, for revision with my mom n stuff, so I just wanted to say thank you!
If anyone is confused about why listing the factors and multiples doesn't seem to work on bigger fractions. It's because it doesn't because it will start taking you a loooong time to keep writing them for each fraction the bigger they get and you may be given problems with 3 fractions too. Prime factoring is what you need to learn because you use it for simplifying, finding common denominators when adding and subtracting fractions, and also cross canceling when multiplying and dividing fractions. I recommend learning this first after you're done with equivalent fractions because it's super important you know it beforehand because you'll probably be put on comparing fractions first. Also if you find it hard to learn adding and subtracting fractions first try starting on multiplying and dividing fractions first. I did that and it made it easier to practise prime factoring, and it helped me understand common denominators too.
Thanks for the reminder the pandemic made my brain mush also to sum it up for those who are still confused just divide like normal the other stuff is extra
Thank you so so much! My teacher gave me a packet of all my missing stuff and I forgot how to do some of it and progress reports are going to be made soon! You are a life saver, thank you SOOO much!!
Thank you so much I’ve been looking for someone who explains well and I actually understand lol usually people speak to fast but this video is great keep up the good work !!!
Thank you so much! This helped me so much! I’m having a math test tomorrow and I’m having confidence all because of this video! You helped me so much! Thank you🙏
Mr J sir you are the truth Ive been watching your videos for the past week now all I can say is thank you sir you really break things down and put them in simplest form indeed thank Jesus/God for your knowledge and thank you for spreading it indeed ...💯✊🏾💪🏾‼️‼️‼️❗✌🏾✌🏾✌🏾
