Ur an absolute life saver my teacher literally forgets to tell us how to calculate stuff and never take notes for any student in her class but expects us to know how to do stuff we never learned in finals

When you have a quiz tomorrow and you’re not trying to fail math😭

I wish this could be on history as the smartest man on YouTube. Mr. J

Math was my weakest subject in school I could never seem to get it right or comprehend it but just by watching your 3-7 minute videos has helped me more then any other teacher has thank you !!

I don’t have to learn this yet, but when I do, I want to be on top on it. Thanks a lot Mr.J😊🙏🏽

This is such a convoluted way of doing it. All you need is to multiply the listed price by [TaxRate / (100 +1)]

so if the tax rate is 8% it's listed price x 1.08.
If the tax rate is 12% it's listed price x1.12.

Or just petition your government to join the rest of the world and actually show what you pay at the till on the label

I needed this refresher. If you don’t use something often it can be forgotten.

This example was extremely helpful and easy to understand.
