I thought i was a master at using calculators. BRO OPENED UP A WHOLE DIMENSION OF CALCULATORS IN 8 MINUTES
THANKS SO MUCH MAN

The purpose of the function used for the hours to minutes conversion is actually used for converting decimal degrees into latitude and longitude in degrees and minutes and seconds of arc, but using it to convert time is a good way to use it as well.

You change my way from grade 4 to 9 literally. Man hats off.

[dogmuncher_]

Clicked on this expecting to know all 10 and ended up knowing like 2 😂
Great vid, this will actually help me in my exams 👍

[lesyeuxdeniiniii]

THANK YOU, THANK YOU.
The time into minutes and hours and storing values into a calculator actually saved my life. You're a legend, schools don't even teach us this

[A-ujbl]

Oh my god I've always been a victim of forgetting to put that fraction in for the quadratic formula and then having to start again. You absolute legend!

[solo]

as someone who knew most of these it's 100% the most precious information for the maths gcse

[wardz]

ive got my drama exam tomorrow but im watching calculator tricks 💀🙏. thank youuu!!

[larawabsie]

The standard form conversions do work with negative powers - you just need to use the (-) button (under the red Alpha A) between the x10 and the power and it should work.

[zaynabmohammed]

all AQA Maths 2023 exam students have a paper 2 calculator exam and thanks to you, out of all of the youtube maths tutors, you have literally helped me the most :)

[dnabate]

Out of topic but you’re majestic as hell 🥲

[craz]

Already knew these, but I'm glad there's someone out there sharing the knowledge

[AG-qlsy]

top G. number separation and decimal to time were really helpful

[Rose-rvzo]

Final video before paper 2 and this is pretty much all the revision I did- wish me luck 😂

[haydenbaldock]

Holy cow this is useful! I'm gonna share this with my class because this can save minutes in the actual exam~! Thanks alot~

[michaeltraynor]

Thank you, that was so helpful. I will need to spend some time working it all out, your tips are excellent.

[rheashah]

Thank you so much, literally gonna save me so much time

[harry_stw]

Wow that plotting graph one is amazing I’ll be doing that in paper 2 and 3

[TamashiAdithya]

Thanks man you're literally saving lives!

[VixvyGaming]

Thank you so much. It is literally the night before my last maths exam, and I decided to watch this video and I'm so glad I did. All these tips were so useful and even though I knew I few before, I didn't know any of the more important ones mentioned, like the store feature (which I was actually stressing over earlier, having to writing down long numbers from using things like sine rule without knowing this thing existed). Anyway, thank you so much for making this video because now I feel even more confident for my exam.
