Thank you Mr. J! You just saved my life and made this concept so much more easier than how I was being taught! I will use this method forever!

[@sylviademarais]

same this is ike less steps too

[@gordon9177]

@@sylviademarais if you using a calculator, you don't have to move the % over, when you do the division.

[@OurThaiJourney]

you solved my problem. I used to have advanced physics, calculus, trig, etc education but being 61 have forgotten so much. I needed to do a calculation for sausage. For example. I have 1.3 kg of lean meat. I need to have a ratio of 70 percent meat to 30 percent meat. I need to know how much fat to add. This is for making sausage. This will help me do it myself instead of asking google. My brain is working again. So Lean Meat × 100 ÷ 70 = Total product Weight. Total Product weight - Lean meat = fat required.

[@nightcoreluv51]

could you show how you divide the decimal and the price

[@scoutmittens5581]

Is there a tutorial that you made that has finding the original price but instead of discount it’s tax for example, The school secretary orders a new printer and pays $310.30 after tax. The tax rate is 7%. What was the original price of the printer, thank you

Can you pls do interpreting data

[@2ndbeats945]

am i just stupid for not understanding AT ALL

[@Cb1975]

I didn't understand that either

[@londongirl1321]

It took me time but I get it now your not stupid. Write the sale price then calculate the % value of the sale so the last example 112.41 divide by 0.45 ( that's what the sale price represents. because you calculated 100-55 =45%. So 112.41÷45 =249.80 and the answer was the original price

[@0Xmoon_pandaX0]

No not at all, keep up the work 🎉

[@user-sv4ke9tl2i]

Nah bro same, I’m meant to be smart but percentages just confuse my brain so much

[@vy8814]

Hii Mr. J! Can you please tell how to solve double discount problems when the sale price is given to find the original

Ooh i got it bro..I was also looking for the discount price that couldnt find in the solution because the topic was only about getting the original price..
I know now how the price get..
If the original price was $249.80 - $112.41 (sale price)= $137.39 is the discounted price of 55%😅😅😅😅

[@rosecan-xb3oo]

Hi, just confused of how it be the original price was $249.80..so if the original price is $249.80 the 50% was $124.90 and the 55% of that price suppose to be is $137.39?? How come that the discount price of 55% is 112.41???
Enlighten me pls..thank you..

[@CelestialLuardo]

Can i ask a question?
What if no discount

[@DifferentDivergent]

What about when its with tax instead of discount?

[@KennersThe3rd]

THe GOaT

[@RicharaThompson]

I think number 1 is 8.5 because
Divide 59.50÷70=8.5
I thought i was wrong but i even checked the calculator😅

Oh my god u r my angels

[@user-mp1jv2zp7e]

Wow

[@J7ninetyfive]

Came here for the long division of this problem and was disappointed

[@adamsalem-s]

x=sale-price
d=discount IN DECIMAL for example 55% would be 0.55
x/(1-d)
For example from the video
x=59.50
d=0.30
x/(1-d) = 85
