I just found your videos, but they are so useful, especially since I am approaching mathematics after a break of 3 years and you are just so helpful in recalling those vital concepts

Great info....purple marker had to see though..

[SuperLoLHERO]

wow still making videos! youre saving my college algebra grade LOL

[johnmaulkin-urlm]

Excellent, thank you. Difficult to read the purple marker though. Thanks again.

You're fantastic and make great stuff, but I would lose that light purple color. It just disappears into your shirt when you're behind the numbers. I'd find another color like that glowy green. Thank you for doing a great job!

Mr Logan,
I love your new way of presentation. Many thanks.

This would be wonderful, but I cannot see anything that is being written with the dark marker

HOW TO SIMPLIFY FRACTIONS THE EASIEST WAY:
If the difference between the numerator and denominator is 1, the fraction cannot be simplified.
A. Ask: does the numerator go into the denominator evenly (i.e. without any remainder)?
If yes, proceed to B.
If not, proceed to C.
B. Great! The simplest fraction is 1 over the number of times the numerator fits in the denominator. (e.g. 20/60, 20 fits evenly 3 times, hence 1/3.)
C. Write the remainder, (e.g. 20/46, (20 fits 2 times in 46, with a remainder of) 6.) to the right of the fraction, and ask: does the remainder go evenly into the numerator?
If yes, proceed to D.
If not, proceed to E.
D. Great! The "remainder" is the Greatest Common Factor. Divide both the numerator and denominator by the GCF/remainder to have the simplest fraction.
E. Write the "new remainder" (using the last example, 20/46, 6 fits into 20 with a "new remainder" of 2) to the right of the previous "remainder", and ask: does the "new remainder" fit evenly into the previous "remainder" (2 into 6)?
If yes, proceed to D.
If not, proceed to E.
Please, (with your amazing talent, ) produce a video demonstrating it.

How the fuck does he write backwards better than I write forwards??
