real shit man

[@AX7K965]

Fr, this man is the reason why I am passing math class

[@ThedaEmpire]

no, this guy is god who came to us and helped us in maths😭

[@KeishlaAquino]

I am assuming you are a Professor and one of the best ones. Because no teacher has been able to explain Math problems the way you do. God Bless you. Thank you for what you do Mr. J

[@jeizae5058]

i love you mr J, always saving me from pounding my brain on the table trying to figure out equations

[@wxnderingtragedy4099]

Mr. J you are literally better than every teacher that has taught me math god bless u

[@islatalitsch2268]

Whenever I don't understand the lesson my teacher gives me I go to you immediately because you are a life saver thank you so much

[@akapasokopo]

I came from a B- to an A because of your channel! I wish you were my teacher!

[@Amiguitodelospanitas]

Bruh, a B in my country is A+ 100%

[@Lamarxrayes]

U are the best math teacher ever i mean it.

[@MiguelGonzalez-qs8sf]

HELLO Mr J I have a teacher that really loves your videos if u can please say hi it will make her day

[@MathwithMrJ]

Wow, that’s awesome to hear! Tell your teacher that I said, “hi” and to have a great rest of the week! ✌️✌️✌️

[@iqbalkaleem6816]

Bruh the video was uploaded 7hrs ago And the comment was pinned 10 hrs ago?

[@autumnjabokwaom931]

Mr J the goat

[@marjolemulder9978]

So basically the distributive property says multiplying by a sum (or difference) is the same as multiplying by each value in the sum (or difference) and combining the products

[@marjolemulder9978]

Also the distributive property can also be used when there are more than two terms inside a set of parentheses. Distribute the factor outside the parentheses to each value inside the parentheses.

[@mmtz816]

Why can you multiply 8*2m but not add 2m+6? If 8 and 2m are not like terms.

[@StudyGed]

Interesting question. Have you figured it out yet? I'm thinking that it's because with the distributive property, all you're doing is simplifying the expression to it's simplest form. But im not sure.

[@Adjgar-uu7bu]

Im 5 months late but here I come. The reason you can multiply 2m 8 times is because 2m is a solid value. So multiplication is always going to be the same, like 2m+2m 4 times. However, when we do addition we wouldn't get the same result. We don't know the value of M meaning that if we added 6 to 2m we cannot figure out the answer. Saying the answer would be 8m would be assuming M is equal to 1 and for all we know M could be equal to 3,000. When we multiply we just repeat the number and the value stays solid so it doesn't change.

[@Byahmad6]

Evertime mom say ur everywhere

[@nourshoukry3131]

Can you try another way of teaching

[@mikestuart7674]

Slop sloppy Mr J a(b+c) is NOT = ab+ac IT IS a(b+c) = (ab+ac) This is important !!! Don't drop parenthesis till solved. If you combine operations you get the wrong answer. This is exactly why so many people do poorly in math. You need to redo your video's with more precision.

[@user-wc7ci9ng6l]

THIS SH MAKES NO SENSE

[@marjolemulder9978]

you are no sense dudey

[@larryxieu2825]

Bro teaches better than my teacher and faster bruh😂thx for the help btw KEEP TEACHING
