Adding fractions with different signs | Fractions | Pre-Algebra | Khan Academy

Im only 35 seconds in and i had to pause the video and check the comments to see if im the only one who isn't going to learn from this video. Holy cow, this is beyond me.

[@delightfuldelights5532]

If you go to the Khan academy site they have videos before this that actually explain it. These are just the practice vids😅

[@irenechampion3342]

i thought this would help my daughter for 7th grade amps but it only made her more confused.

[@FullmoonPhantom-dn2sr]

I’m confused as well. I’m an adult. 😂 Trying to refresh my mind on fractions. I’m in agreement. This was not a good video imo. I was supposed to walk away understanding all of this and feeling silly for getting caught up in my old young self thoughts on fraction fears, but instead I’m wondering why the guy decided to add a negative 2 and 1/6.

[@milkshake549]

I hate how he uses number lines instead of teaching you how to do the actual math. Like, how do I know what 3 7/8 - 2 1/6 is on a number line?!

[@kayp4273]

EXACTLY like fr

[@unrealdevop]

I thought at first this was wrong...even though I remembered improper fractions were supposed to be done this way....you really should have explained or even mentioned Improper Fractions when doing this video. It took me a good minute to realize that on Wolfram Alpha that the improper fractions needed to be calculated first using '3 Divide[1,8] as an improper fraction' on Wolfram Alpha before actually entering it to get the answer.

I feel like it’s too hard when I do it by myself! Why it seems so easy and then is super hard!!!! 😔😔😔

When adding or subtracting fractions with different denominators, you should be able to control them. If you have studied Gongbae well, this unit may be easy.

[@MrMe-go8zh]

Who else is here because of your teacher?

[@donnapuizina]

If I didn't know how to solve this, I'd be totally confused by this person. I was hoping to find a clear easy-to-understand video for an ESL student but this was awful.

[@dianemeans8687]

My daughter tried ''Study pug" and she's been understanding math way more now

[@markschatzman4145]

Me at school👍 Me at home👎

[@Sentieantbeing]

Yes

[@hieronymusmosch]

Wait wut

[@dragonsfire2216]

A1 boiii! Thanks cal

[@christophermenchaca4859]

Why would you change it to an improper fraction and not change it back at the end of the problem? Very confusing Sir

[@moviedeleted1386]

i don't get it i need adding intergers 6 grade

[@daphnemundo1812]

I’m confused how did u get 6/8 ???????

[@victoriam9720]

basically, you need to have the same denominators, so what he did was multiply 3/4 x 2= 6/8

[@aguadelimones2792]

I DONT GET IT AHHHHHHHH

[@RohailYMithani]

You just need to rewatch and focus then it will not be confusing

[@angelstutoringservices5973]

The number line made this so easy to follow and understand. Without the number line, I would have been completely lost

[@wyldgamer633]

🤔what is going on?

[@tylerblue5811]

I am increasing my brain functionality. I AM LEARNING!!!!!!!!!!! YAY!!

[@yesserlabidi7831]

this amazing !!!!!! thanks I got it ! and its a + guys !

[@milkshake549]

Why did you solve this problem in the most complicated way possible? Why not separate the whole numbers and then add the fractions together? like 3-2+3/24+18/24-4/24 = 1+17/24. You didn't take the time to explain least common denominators or anything. I call for a redo. lol

[@Gstar000001]

thanks

[@MatrixCyclone]

Oldest comment on YT I have ever seen. It would be amazing if you were to respond to this to see if you are still active…

[@leximarie7145]

THERE IS NO SUCH MATHEMATICAL CRITTER AS OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@StivenShady]

How do you get 25/8 from 3*1/8? I get 3/8 as the result. Since i usually multiply the 3 by 1/8 not 3*8+1!!!! WHY!!! My hair line just moved, for your information.!!

[@urfavsportsanalyst9671]

Shadrick Kaluba That’s because the way he did it is the correct way you have to multiply the denominator times the mixed number then add the numerator Also you might wanna ask help from a teacher because that’s just how you solve it

[@neekap5987]

it is 3+1/8, so there's a mistake

[@yehyaqasem4744]

its too confusing

[@tirlochansingh6007]

_hello son_

[@LionPold]

Does anybody know why 8x1/8 is 25/8? If I do it on the calculator it says 0.375

[@pupilmover9835]

1 and 17 over 24

[@clarencesarmiento5846]

Its too confusing non sense video

[@justinepho6983]

why isn’t it a negative answer?

[@milkshake549]

It's simple. If you look at the whole numbers of the positive and negative fractions, (3 and -2) the positive number (3) is greater than the negative number (2) if you subtract 2 from 3 you get 1. You don't go under zero to get to your answer.

[@knightscrusade9153]

For anyone still trying to learn on this video your wasting time

[@diecastcarsmodels5496]

Khan academy 🤮😡

[@victoriam9720]

why isnt it negative help

[@abhishekpandey9049]

becuz 93/24 is greater than 52/24.......and the sign of our result is always of the one which is the bigger no. among the two....hope it helps you :)

[@neekap5987]

how is 3*1/8 not 3/8 -_-

[@neekap5987]

i get it now, because it is 3+1/8, so there's a mistake

[@paulceltics]

no, my thanks
