Stop Struggling with Fractions! | Ex 3b, New General Maths SS1.

In this video, fractions are explained in a very easy and assessible manner. By the end of this video, you will be able to add, subtract, multiply and divide fractions. You will also be able to solve real-life problems involving rates and proportions, using fractions. The questions are taken from exercise 3b, Book 1 of the New General Mathematics for Senior Secondary Schools.

00:00 - Question 1 - Addition, subtraction, multiplication and division of fractions.
08:09 - Question 3 - Determine which is the greatest of 7/9, 3/4, and 10/13. [WAEC]
10:51 - Question 5 - Express 0.575 as a fraction in its lowest terms.
11:52 - Question 7 - A flagpole 6.3 m long is driven 1.4 m into the ground. What fraction of the pole is above the ground? [WAEC]
13:11 - Question 9 - How much less than 6 is the sum of 2+(3/4) and 2+(4/5)?
14:46 - Question 11 - After spending 2/5 of her money on food and 1/6 on cosmetics, a woman was left with =N=1300. How much money did she have originally?

20:43 - Question 17 - 3/4 of the girls in SSS1 play basketball and 4/7 play volleyball. Every girl plays at least one of these games. If 27 girls play both games, how many girls are there in the class?

I really pray that you land a gig with a big school that won't stress your kidneys...
This step by step teaching is just gold.
We didn't have this luxury in our time...
Good work, Nonso...
