Practice. We learn by experience.
You may want to buy an extra workbook at the bookstore, which has answers so you can check. There are many good workbooks on the market, and very inexpensive.
I'm sorry but it's not time cause i want to refresh my memory by a website or something
It might help us to suggest web sites, ifwe know what specific aspects of math were bothering you. Please repost with this information.
Thanks for asking.
need help with fractions
Sure, I can help you with fractions!
Fractions can be confusing, but with practice and understanding of the concepts, they can become easier to work with. Here are a few tips to help you:
1. Understand the concept: A fraction represents a part of a whole. It is made up of two numbers separated by a fraction bar - the numerator (top number) and the denominator (bottom number).
2. Simplify fractions: To simplify a fraction, find the greatest common factor (GCF) of the numerator and denominator, and then divide both numbers by the GCF.
3. Adding and subtracting fractions: To add or subtract fractions with the same denominator, add or subtract the numerators and keep the denominator the same. If the fractions have different denominators, find a common denominator by multiplying the denominators together, then convert each fraction to have that common denominator. Finally, add or subtract the numerators and keep the denominator the same.
4. Multiplying and dividing fractions: To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators together and the denominators together. To divide fractions, multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal (flipped version) of the second fraction.
5. Convert between fractions and decimals: To convert a fraction to a decimal, divide the numerator by the denominator. To convert a decimal to a fraction, write the decimal as a fraction using the decimal place value (tenths, hundredths, etc.) as the denominator.
To practice working with fractions, there are many online resources available. Here are a few websites you can check out:
- Khan Academy (www.khanacademy.org): Khan Academy offers interactive lessons, videos, and practice exercises for various math topics, including fractions.
- Math Is Fun (www.mathisfun.com): This website provides comprehensive explanations, examples, and interactive games to help you understand fractions.
- IXL (www.ixl.com): IXL offers a wide range of practice questions and exercises on fractions, allowing you to track your progress and improve your skills.
Remember, practice and perseverance are key in mastering fractions. Don't hesitate to ask for help if you're still struggling with specific concepts or problems. Good luck!
