Percentage Trick Vs Reality

The reality is never that easy!

In physics, this is why they start off with "consider a spherical cow in a vacuum". It makes the arithmetic easier.

Actually I used the trick before watching your video. 12 percent of 52 = 52 percent of 12 = 50 percent of 12 + 2 percent of 12 = 6 + 2*12/100 = 6.24.

[KanishkaSingh]

Q) 12% of 52
= 12/100 × 52
= 624/100
Ans = 6.24


The simplest way... 👍

I never realised this trick until I realised than the % sign is kind of like multiplying the number by 1/100, and that the word “of” in these scenarios means multiplication. Since the order of multiplication doesnt matter, we can put the % sign to whichever number we want, and order the numbers however we want.

It's so true 😭
When u actually go to solve the real problem 🗿

[chipwells]

My 4th grade students call it commutative property of multiplication.

[divy]

reality:
12% of 52
= 52% of 12
= 50% of 12 + 2% of 12
= 6 + 0.24 (12*2/100)
= 6.24

[itsphoenixingtime]

= 50% of 12 + 2 x 1% of 12
= 6 + 2 x 0.12
= 6.24

We aren't going to talk about how he holds the marker?

What your teacher taught vs what asked in exams

[einsteingonzalez]

You applied it correctly.
Now you need to consider this:
52% of 12 = (50 + 2)% of 12
= [50% of 12] + [2% of 12]
= 6 + 0.24 = 6.24

All of it is true by the Generalized Commutative Property of Equality.
When one understands logic and its application, no problem is too difficult,
as long as you have the right tools.

That way, you'll never be stuck.

Is anyone else mad at how he's holding the marker? Anyone?!

[anandkarthik]

I was waiting for him to write 12% of 52 again

[arnavpvpkumar]

A way I like to do this is by multiplying the percentage and the other number together and moving the decimal place the 2 places to the left.

In other words; x% of y = xy × 10^-2

Examples:
12% of 25 = 25 × 12 × 10^-2 = 300 × 10^-2 = 3.

7% of 40 = 40 × 7 × 10^-2 = 280 × 10^-2 = 2.8

[donaldgjeta]

The easier way is

12x25=300÷100=3

This works for EVERY PERCENTAGE EQUATION

[FunnyLottery]

When it's not divided evenly and you have a decimal, u take that spare .2 and x the 12 and its 24 cents 6.24

[xxgoku]

Just like that multiplication technique where you draw lines and count the intersections
Every videos does it with something like 12x23 because it is unsurprisingly unpractical in real life (try it with 75x98, you will see what I mean)

[prabhatpankaj]

To calculate mentally we can put 1/8 instead of 12 to get approx answer.
Use this mark nearest option

[ajmtk]

He looked so excited it broke my heart when he didnt get his answer- good acting man

[ghitajibril]

Bro im literally listening to the music. This guy gonna get a load of views!!😂
