I've been catching up, back then you had to go to each video for comments, now you can get all of them in one place :)

I didn't pay attenion attenion in pre alg, so comming back having to know this for chem and the SAT's thanks alot!

We do ours in chemistry class not algebra. This is really helpful though since our teacher doesn’t explain it

Answer this question for me, please, is a head scratcher: 1.0 cubic centimetre (cm^3) of a solution contains 0.010g of salt. What is the mass of salt contained in 1 cubic decimetre (dm^3) of the same solution? Textbook says 10g but I disagree, my answer is 0.1g Which answer is correct and Why?

What are your steps and what textbook are you using?

@@Greenemath My steps are: 1.0 cm^3 has 0.010g 1*10^-2m^3 has 0.010g 0.01m^3 has 0.010g therefore 1m^3 has 1g meaning 10^-1m^3 has 0.1g = dm^3 has 0.1g It can't be 10g. Try it like ten times still get that answer, maybe the textbook answer is wrong, idk or my steps are wonky. The textbook name: Chemistry by Rob Lewis and Wynne Evans, Fifth Edition Publisher: Palgrave Question: Excerise 1C (ii)

@@carzyscenctist Here is what I am thinking. When you talk about a decimeter versus a centimeter, we are talking about an amount that is 10 times larger. When we think about things being cubed now, we would think about this as being 1000 times larger (10^3). So here, my understanding would be if they had the same solution and a 1000 times larger amount of it, how much is the mass. So I would just do .01 * 1000 = 10. I haven't taken chemistry in such a long time that I am unfamiliar with that type of problem. I think that's what they did to get a solution.

in the first problem just multiply $3.25 times 4, then multiply that by 500 and subtract $750. Same sequence for the second problem. No offense GreeneMath but, you make it more difficult than it has to be.

Although what you mention is faster, you would need to know there four quarts in a gallon. Since this is about unit conversion word problems, I took the time to explain the conversion step. If I showed it the way you mentioned above, all of the comments would be "where did you get the 4 from".

If you're not working the problems in the video, of course you're not going to learn anything. You can't passively watch a math video and learn.
