0:00
so we're talking fractions that's most
0:01
in percent
0:03
right first we're going to learn how to
0:05
go from what
0:10
rock we going to learn how to go from
0:12
percentage to decimals that's easy very
0:15
easy stuff right
0:18
again to write a percent as a decimal
0:21
you just divide it by 100 and do what
0:24
and then remove the symbol right so if
0:27
you want to go for example 16% you just
0:30
have to divide by 100 16 over 100 and
0:32
just move take away the symbol right and
0:35
then how do you know when you divide by
0:37
100 what do you do when you divide
0:38
number by 100 you move the decimal how
0:39
many places to the right one two two
0:42
places to the right every time you
0:44
divide by 100 that means you move the
0:46
decimal two places to the right right
0:48
and then if you go from a percentage to
0:50
a decimal you have to remove the symbol
0:52
16% is the equivalent of what is the
0:55
equivalent of
0:56
0.16 right it's the same thing again
0:58
this is one of the easiest things
1:00
and you can use your calculator you
1:02
should use your calculator right it's
1:04
easy stuff right so again if I have 16%
1:08
I just write it as 16 over 100 and
1:11
that's 0.16 if it's
1:14
7% why would I be equal to 0.7 plus 7
1:18
over what 100 is it 0.7 or 0.07 0. 0.07
1:23
because if you start here I'm going to
1:25
move it right actually I say the damage
1:28
thing you don't move the decimal to the
1:30
right but to the left two places to the
1:32
left all right so if you were watching
1:34
the video I'm sorry so it's two places
1:36
to the left so we're going to start from
1:38
here right we're going to go one and two
1:40
so it's going to be 0.07 so this is
1:43
0.07 and then we make sure we take away
1:46
the percent symbol right now what if I
1:49
had
1:50
0.2% how would I write that as a
1:52
fraction
1:54
anybody
1:57
0.2% how do I go from that to a decimal
1:59
first I need to turn into a fraction yes
2:02
so you move the
2:05
decimales to the left right so if I
2:08
start here 0.2 I'm going to go what I'm
2:10
going to go from here I'm going to go
2:12
one and another one and I put a dot here
2:15
so
2:16
0.02 right this is what it is 0.02 so
2:20
you have to be very careful when you
2:21
when you do these things all right so
2:23
that's just pretty much from go going
2:25
from percent to decimal so now how do
2:27
you go from decimal to percent right
2:30
again you doing you going the backward
2:33
right if you can go forward you can also
2:35
go backward right you can you can figure
2:37
it out so to write a decimal as a
2:39
percent you multiply by what by 100
2:42
right to go from percent to decimal you
2:44
divide by 100 but to go from deal to
2:47
perc you do what you multiply by 100 and
2:51
add what the percent symbol right for
2:54
example
2:55
0.7 and I want to turn this into a
2:57
percentage I'm going to do what I'm
2:58
going to do 0.7 times 100 and that turns
3:02
into what 70 I have to make sure I put
3:05
the symbol right so example if I give
3:07
you a homework you go 0.70 70 that's
3:10
false it's not 70 it's
3:12
70% right we need to understand the
3:14
proper language the proper way of
3:17
interpreting things we can't just put
3:19
seven I no the Sy matters a lot because
3:22
it says that this is 70 over 100 does
3:25
that make sense right for example 0.03 I
3:29
said percentage you're going to do 0.03
3:32
* what * 100 and that gives you what
3:36
3% right so pretty simple stuff so
3:39
chapter 6 and 7 should be our go-to
3:42
chapters to kind of boost our grades up
3:44
it's really easy stuff right now let's
3:46
do some example here I want to turn 0.7%
3:49
as a fraction as a um as a percent what
3:52
would it be you open say yes this looks
3:56
really heavy as a fraction 0
4:03
i%% you% though
4:06
0.7% no no no no
4:09
0.7 I want to turn this into a actually
4:13
yeah you know what it's just a bunch of
4:14
different things here wait yeah we're
4:16
going to do look I have a list here 0.7%
4:19
as a decimal what would that be uh
4:23
0.7
4:26
0.07 right two what you from here you
4:30
moved it how many times two places to
4:32
the left right cuz it's 0.7% you divide
4:35
it by 100 if you're confused just divide
4:38
it by 100 sorry I didn't get that
4:41
right if you're confused just divide it
4:44
by 100 so what about 5% what would I be
4:48
shut up Siri what would it
4:53
be 5.37 right you see 537 is 5.37
5:00
because again we're dividing by 100 or
5:02
we just moving the decimal two places
5:04
for the left what about
5:08
12626 1.26 this should be the easiest
5:11
chapter what about
5:14
0.9%
5:16
99 right now I want to turn 0.09 into
5:23
percentage I get that I'm going to start
5:28
saying hey hey
5:31
stop yeah what that
5:33
be
5:35
again say 90% how is that
5:39
9%
5:42
0.01 no what would I be then 1% 1% right
5:47
1% what about
5:50
3.84
5:52
384
5:53
34% right because you again you multiply
5:56
by 100 Now what is 0.002
6:02
.2 0. 0.2% right make sure you put a
6:06
percentage symol what about
6:09
3106
6:11
31.6 31.6 so again this is probably one
6:15
of the funnest CHS to work with yeah so
6:18
it's basically always
6:22
say decimal ones or the way to think
6:25
about it for decimals is uh percent is
6:28
always just place in the decimal that's
6:31
right compare it to that that's right
6:33
yeah just like that right so if I'm I'm
6:36
decimal to% I'm going to the right I'm
6:39
moving forward right I'm going to move
6:40
it two places to the right that's 1% so
6:43
percentage to symbol I do what divide by
6:45
100 moov it to the left it's just that
6:47
right now we have now we going to go
6:49
from fraction to percent right we did
6:52
that last week from fraction to percent
6:54
so what do we do what was the key to
6:57
solving this how do I go from a fraction
6:58
to a percent
7:00
yeah compare it to X over 100 compare to
7:03
X over 100 because I want to get it over
7:05
100 right X over 100 now for some
7:07
fraction they are easier like I know I
7:09
can go from so what I do here if I had
7:12
like five I just have to multiply by 20
7:14
right but if I don't have like a number
7:15
that so obvious I I'm going to use this
7:18
here I'm going to set it to equal to X
7:20
over 100 because we want to know what 58
7:23
is in terms of a number over 100 right
7:26
and then we use what the cross
7:28
multiplication right again that's just a
7:31
preview of the test so this is 500 right
7:34
equal to
7:35
8X because I'm going like this right and
7:38
to find it I'm going to divide it by
7:40
what eight that gives you what then put
7:43
it in your
7:48
calculator what you get 62.5 who say
7:52
that so
7:54
62.5% right now am I am I going to write
7:57
62.5 or 62.5
8:00
% percent because I'm going to go from a
8:03
fraction to percentage so 62.5 I do not
8:06
forget to put my symbol because if I
8:08
don't put it that means I have totally
8:10
different things but I want to I want to
8:12
express it as a percentage so X is what
8:15
62.5 so the fraction is
8:18
62.5% right because if I just write 62.5
8:21
doesn't even make any sense because a
8:23
number of eight five over eight cannot
8:26
give you a number that's higher than one
8:28
right so this has to be a percent now 7
8:31
13 how do I turn this into a
8:35
percent equals to
8:37
what same same process right and we're
8:40
going to use again the cross
8:42
multiplication so we have 700 =
8:51
13x and then divide by 13 that gives us
8:57
what and then for this kind of questions
9:00
always go two places to the right right
9:03
run it to 100 every every time if I
9:05
don't specify so that's what I'm
9:07
expecting so what did you get for
9:10
this
9:13
535 53 what 85 all right
9:18
53.85% all right so
9:21
53.85% all right so now with this so now
9:24
we're going to try to work on a real
9:25
world problem right in an online survey
9:28
one f of teenagers say that their
9:32
favorite way of communicating with
9:34
friends is by email and then 21%
9:37
preferred text and 0.15 favor
9:43
in now the
9:45
question hey that's besides the point
9:49
let's let's work on this problem right
9:52
so we have one faith of teenagers say
9:54
that their favorite way of communicating
9:56
is by email 21%
9:59
text and 0.15 favor instant messaging
10:02
which is probably one of those right uh
10:06
maybe uh Snapchat or whatever you call
10:09
it which group of these is the
10:15
largest so how do we know which one is
10:17
the largest so first we need to find out
10:19
how many groups we have so first we have
10:23
the email what is the email what's the
10:26
fraction for the email
10:30
right so email is 1 what is the text
10:34
text is
10:35
what text is 21% right and then the last
10:40
one is group uh instant messaging right
10:42
that's 0.15 instant message I put I am
10:45
right now how would you compare these
10:47
numbers M it could be like maybe
10:52
Facebook Messenger
10:59
what I'll put them all as percent
11:01
because I know I can turn 0 into 15% and
11:05
and I know 1.5 is the easy way to that's
11:09
right right so to do this it's better to
11:12
have everything in percentage here right
11:14
so we already have the tax Mage 21% so
11:16
we can turn 0.15 to a percentage what
11:18
would that be 15 15% we just have to
11:21
move in two places or multiply by 100
11:23
that's 15% right and then I'm also going
11:26
to turn one over five into a percentage
11:28
right now it's one of those easiest
11:29
fraction so how do I turn one to
11:34
percentage I can use this over x 100 or
11:37
I could just times this by what 20 right
11:40
so this should be 20% if you do it right
11:42
so that be 20% right so email is 20%
11:46
text is 21% I is 15% so which one is the
11:50
preferred way of communication text
11:52
messages and it's still 21% it's still
11:55
two to this day right you guys like you
11:57
guys have lost the ability to
11:58
communicate excuse me because you're
12:00
afraid of talking right okay so most
12:02
people just like T most most most
12:07
teenagers boyfriend girlfriend through
12:10
text messaging can't talk to girlriend
12:13
you can't you see school you like and
12:16
thenex me you got bed you know that's
12:19
that's kind of like that's not even true
