    Thank you so much for all your ASVAB math videos. My daughter was struggling with math and nervous to take her test. You share a lot of great tricks to solving problems. After watching all your videos and studying she scored an 86 on the ASVAB and qualified academically for any job she wants in the Air Force. We can’t thank you enough!!

    Tip here! In exercise number 10 you can convert the fractions to percentages, then add the percentages, then multiply the total of percentages to the total of nuts, and finally subtract your result to the total of nuts(200-70) and it’ll give you the answer. Hope this helps!

    Hello Colfax Math! I just wanted to drop a comment to express my gratitude for your amazing videos. I'm currently getting ready for the ASVAB test, which is just a few weeks away, and I must say, your videos have been incredibly helpful in my preparation. Thank you so much for taking the time to create and upload them.
    On the practice sheet covered in this video I noticed that the Mathematical Knowledge Practice in the back of the sheet had questions #18-40. Would it be possible for you to make a video going over those specific questions? I believe it would greatly benefit me and many others who are studying for the ASVAB.
    Once again, thank you for your dedication and the valuable content you provide. Keep up the fantastic work!

      It's a hard problem with lots of ideas in it. Adding and multiplying fractions, common denominators, proportions. First is to figure out what fractional amount of the apples you used, after that you can figure out what fractional amount you have left 1/8. From there if 1/8 is the fractional amount left and 3 is the total amount of apples, you can do 3 divided by the 1/8 to get 24 total apples to start with

      @@tamaraforbes6459 hi! not sure if you still need help with that problem but basically you need to move the Zs to one side of the equation and the numbers to the other
      Keep in mind that when you move numbers to the other side of the equation, positive numbers will be negative and vice versa. Also anything you do on one side of the equation, you must do the same for the other.
      So once you move everything around it will be 3z+2z=25-5+5
      which then simplifies to 5z=25
      from here you divide 25 by 5 to get z by itself, and that gives you z=5!
      Hope this helped lol

    For #10, the least common multiple of 4 and 10 is 20. Why did you use 40 when it’s not the first common one 4 and 10 have?

    • @ColfaxMath
      @ColfaxMath  Před 2 lety

      Yes that is correct, the least common multiple is 20 and it would be good to use that number. I used 40 only because it seemed easier to see and multiply to. As long as you are multiplying by one to get the fraction the same it doesn't change the value of the number.

    • @moneyboyfranco8936
