Fractions subtraction trick - the fast way!
Forget finding common denominators when subtracting dissimilar fractions - this way is much faster and easier. This video also looks at how to deal with mixed numbers and simplification. Oh yeah..and at the end can you beat me? Not a chance!

Have always been bad at math, but used your videos 4 years ago to get into nursing school. Have to take another entrance exam for school again with similar math as before. Thought I had saved your videos, but didn’t, and all I could remember was it was the “Australian guy” who taught me- can’t believe I found you again! Thank you so much for making math easy for me!

@@patriotjon8535 Well, for one thing just knowing you understand and can solve the fractions is a great feeling and, second, maybe you can help someone else who is struggling with fractions. For myself, I will be confident doing fractions and I will be able to help my grandson if he needs it. I've always been afraid of math because I didn't understand it and I've always thought I was inept at math, but now I know I just never had anyone who knew how to teach it so I could understand it. Have a GREAT day! :)

That's not surprising. I've seen videos in which high school math teachers (have to take calculus and higher-level math to teach) have admitted that they didn't really understand fractions until they had taught for a while. These days, the standards for math educators have been raised. They actually have to understand concepts, math logic, and be able to see problems from multiple perspectives. Simply memorizing the standard algorithm isn't good enough, anymore. I've even seen some math teachers with shirts that say, "Math is a language," which is how I personally view it. If you want to have an even better understanding of fractions, I recommend you check out Dr. James Tanton here on KZread. He is quite creative and visual and does things outside-of-the-box.
I use your video's to teach my 9 year old and he loves your videos! You make easy for him to understand. Thank you!
Where were you when I needed this!!! 55 years ago!!!
Absolutely fantastic. Given me the confidence i needed by heloing me understand... Cheers 😃

Good Evening Love this youtube channel ! I've learned more with this guy than i did in school! when it come to fractions could you explain to me how you know when to use the proper method. I just need further explanation on when to multiply and when to divide when it come to fractions problems like these ones. Thank You for your help!
Really helps me understand fractions better cause before fractions were like HELL fro me and now i will use your triks to help me thanks sooo much
I'm 41 years old and I've only now learned how to subtract fractions. Thank you.
You’re the best math teacher I’ve ever heard!!
for mixed numbers I've always resolved the whole numbers first and this way I only have to convert one side of the problem to an improper fraction. so based on your first example: 2 1/4 - 1 1/3 - First I would just subtract out the whole numbers so 2 - 1 = 1 my equation now becomes 1 1/4 - 1/3 - now I convert the 1 1/4 to an improper fraction which gives me 5/4 my equation is now 5/4 - 1/3 now make them have the common denominator, so 5/4 becomes 15/12 and 1/3 becomes 4/12 my final equation becomes 15/12 - 4/12 which equals 11/12
I've heard good things about you i have faith in you
I am a 52 year old man and I sucked at fractions at school. Trying to help my kid's I came across your website and now my kid's and I understand fractions. Thank you 👍
