Wouldn’t metric just be easier?

[@untalentedcartoonist1690]

I was struggling I finally get it.

[@33wolf33]

Why is 1/16th good for 'our' purposes?

[@athensstorytime3743]

[@-Antt.]

I have a test on Saturday , I want that welding job so bad , I never studied for school for this shit , always failed math , I will really put my heart and soul into this test

[@tradestutor1191]

Awesome! What topics does the math test cover?

[@-Antt.]

@@tradestutor1191 it covers mostly the basics , fractions , decimals , feet and inches

[@tradestutor1191]

@@-Antt. Good luck. Here is a link to another resource that might help you out. opentextbc.ca/mathfortrades1/

[@tradestutor1191]

You can either read the book online or download it. I suggest reading it online. There are video answers and quizzes which are accessible online.

[@-Antt.]

Thank you so much ! After Saturday once I get updates I’ll let u know how it went

[@gonzalolagos1218]

i'm sorry, I didnt understand how you turn 516 into fraction. Why 1/16? why you chose that? Thanks

[@bigbird4481]

Probably because that's the smallest unit on a tape measure that measures in inches

[@Dirtbagbuilds]

Thank you so much!

[@simplytrueyou9202]

Thank you, you explained it perfectly. I have a builder's license test tomorrow and got hung up on rafter length.

[@tradestutor1191]

You're welcome. I'm glad it helped and thanks for watching. Take care and good luck with your exam.

[@Topdawg48]

where did you get 1/2 from.?

[@amysho2192]

He simplified 8/16 by dividing top and bottom by 8.

[@Cerealenjoyer45]

This helped a lot, thank you!

been looking for this. thank you sir

[@David-excellent]

Excellently explained! Thanks a lot. You should be a school teacher 👍

[@tradestutor1191]

Thanks and thanks for watching! In eal life I am a school teacher. I teach plumbing at a technical college.

[@natepayne3063]

Very nice easy video thank you

[@tradestutor1191]

You're welcome. Thanks for watching.

[@TheJabra45]

That was so helpful thank you sir 🙏

[@alejandroochoa6212]

Why the 16 ?

[@bigbird4481]

Probably because on a tape measure that measures in inches the smallest measurement is a 1/16th of an inch

[@Elpipiton]

Awesome man

[@gurshaanbasra3639]

Can you do this with Dec feet to inch? For ex 3.59' to 8ths

[@tradestutor1191]

HI Gurshaan: Luckily I already made one. Check the video list and you'll find it. Take care and thanks for watching.

[@beansmith2465]

Y are you using 16ths

[@tradestutor1191]

We generally go with 16th's here when dealing with the piping trades. This may differ in other parts of the country but here is just a standard we seem to go with. Take care and thanks for watching.

[@willkildare]

Thank you master .. spot on ...

[@tradestutor1191]

Thanks Will. I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[@dangerous8333]

Finally!!! Everything I watch shows 4/100 5/10. I was so confused...

[@tradestutor1191]

Hey Dan: I'm glad the video worked for you!

[@QUINPANO]

Why was 1/16 chosen in this scenario

[@tradestutor1191]

The only reason that 1/16 was chosen was that is what we usually put our fractions into when doing examples in the trades. You could have made it into 1/8, 1/4 or even 1/32 if you wanted to.

[@be-honestindian3054]

I also confused but solve my problem thanks

[@mikepowell1708]

This is great, but I bought a tape that's in inches and 10ths

[@bigbird4481]

Most tape measures will have inches on one side and centimeters on the other, at least in America

[@bartbley1269]

Good video In my trade I always done every thing in inches or MM to avoid any amount of conversions . the least amount of math the least amount of mistakes . To bad 100 ft. tapes weren't all in inches Millimeter 100 ft tapes were easier units of ten

[@tradestutor1191]

thanks for watching bart and thanks for your comments. Have a great day.

[@ghettooracle917]

I got a question for you….. maybe not 😂

[@tyronepope1616]

I chose this tutorial to play for my class. Was not the best break down on how you ended up with the decimals, you skipped a lot of information leading up to the finale. Found here on you tube what was needed

[@tradestutor1191]

Thanks for the comment Tyrone: I'll relook at the video and see if I can tweak it all to make it better.

[@33wolf33]

How com he chose 1/16th for the decimals?
