Convert kg to pounds (lb) instantly - Fast Mental Math Trick

[@barsaydogmus150]

These tricks are killer for aviation exams where every second is important. Thank you.

[@shems54]

Gonna use this on my cadet pilot exam haha

[@Bilbus7]

"killer" ha

[@sofa_king_hi_420]

Found your channel a couple weeks back. I'm really good and quick at adding small and big numbers but when it came to percentage I was baffled unless it was easy (10, 20, 25, 33, 50% and so on) but since I've come across your channel everything is easy peasy. Thank you, Sir!!

[@jaynieorson31]

I'm dyslexic and never understood maths untill now... Thankyou 😊 your videos are amazing

[@KowboyUSA]

Thank you, tecmath. Hope you had a fantastic 2019.

[@tecmath]

Thanks mate. You too

[@CertifiedWeirdo829]

I went on google for a explaination but it was too confusing so i decided to watch your video and it was SO MUCH EASIER.

[@diamondawg17]

Holy crap you sound like bruce off finding nemo... Love it

[@alexramos9252]

thank you so much, I have a vet school mmi interview with a numeracy section with no calculator. tried so many methods but you saved my butt.

[@pyroaddictando]

You're the best ! Your videos helped me a lot !

[@tecmath]

Thank you. Your comment means a lot :)

[@ryanse4]

I managed to figure out this trick about 2 years ago by myself when I was 15 but you just reminded me of it.

[@ConTrollerNorth2]

Thanks and Happy New Year, tecmath!

[@aletaschulz1108]

This makes more sense than the formula I was taught. ...and it is more fun too.🤗💚

[@natalietilsley7726]

Using this is great, I used this to get to my ideal weight after I broken my foot and didn't get out of the house and I put on the weight and then I have used this brilliant idea to how to lose the lbs of weight and now I'm back on track and the kgs I have to weigh I will be able to do soon thanks for the video.👍

[@soyungamer9452]

You are very good teacher 👨‍🏫

[@hadjerhachemi9527]

All thankssss You are the best your videos very helpful. You make me the best.

[@Starman.2957]

I love this channel

[@soinite]

You are the best!

[@micheleg4540]

I am so bad at math always have been. I’m 59 and you are going to teach me math every day until I’m a genius ❤️

[@williambunter3311]

Thanks for this, especially the pounds to kilos!

[@seanv4321]

35 ×2 and then since we need to find the 0.2 pounds of the answer we can just go 35kg ÷10 ie 3.5 then times 2 for the full answer ie 70+7=77 lb

[@rachelcasas8121]

thank you for helping me! super simple and easy :)

[@sophiesparkle2464]

This makes so much sense I can understand your point thank u

[@eldonjanzen9822]

Just use the 1kg /2.211bs as a conversion factor. Its easier to remember and set up.

[@leeadams9404]

Why the heck are they not teaching this in school

[@sheepleslayer586]

Neat tricks.

[@rsmeditation5613]

Great video, very easy to work out the difference between kilos and pounds. I do feel, though, that you just need to slow down a bit for the section on converting kilos to pounds. I had to watch the video twice over for that part to sink in. Otherwise very good.

[@TonyTN16]

I've said this before. You should be given a Knighthood and an AO for services to education!

[@KuroNguyen]

or... get this... we can make the Americans use the same units of measurement as the rest of the world, that would solve all the problems tbh

[@urhyhnis]

Silver Maybe because America does what America wants to do.

[@mcatability4804]

Yeeeeees! I don't understand their logic using F and Miles. MAKES NO SENSE. It is so hard to remember the conversion ratios.

[@veenibik336]

267kg = 534+ 53.4 = 567.4 lb 😮

[@69wandering]

I force my kids to watch your videos. They need the math help 😁

[@pyroaddictando]

Don t force them , they re not gonna learn anything !

[@pyroaddictando]

Let them do what they like

[@veenibik336]

@@pyroaddictando agree, forcing them wont help to learn anything. They will just wasting their time which is worse .

[@Peter-hc4di]

[@pyroaddictando]

He is literally saying that he is forcing them..

[@task9371]

Could you make a video on compound percentages

[@tabazail]

Im imagining that Chris Hemsworth is a math nut with a secret youtube channnel.

[@Divio18]

The diving by 11 seems overly complicated to me. 18 ÷ 2 = 9, just substract .9 = 8.1. 86lbs to kg, 86/2 = 43 - ~4 = ~39lbs

[@harrypimentel2247]

Faster way to convert pounds to kilograms is to divide the pounds by 2 and then subtract 10% ( pounds divide by 2). So 18 # divide by 2 = 9. 9 divide by 10 = 0.9. 9-0.9 = 8.1 kg.

[@rockyourworld5374]

@tecmath Hey Josh. Why don't you multiply by 2 as per your example and then multiply by 11(you already did it with dividing) instead of trying to figure out a percentage. It's slow. look 17kg x 2 = 34 then use the 11 trick 3 3+4 4 = 374 ÷ 10= 37.4 lbs. No muckin around with clumsy percentages. 😉👍

[@murphygreen8484]

I should get this, but I'm going to blame the late hour: why is the remaining 0.2 = 10%?

[@tecmath]

0.2 is 10% of 2 (the first part of the answer)

[@murphygreen8484]

@@tecmath that makes total sense. Thank you!

[@jakeestrada8114]

Why not just using Kg instead of lbs.. oh c’mon let’s unite folks so no more conversions :) happy 2020

[@Britonbear]

Yes it's about time Myanmar, the USA and Liberia joined the modern world.

[@robertveith6383]

Why not the rest of the world use pounds!? You arrogant a-holes need to shut up!

[@robertveith6383]

​@@Britonbear No, they *don't* need to join. Shut up!

[@emm5468]

Additionally you can just multiply by 2 then move the decimal to the left then multiply by 2 again and add that to your answer

[@febrianantarafa]

How about lbs to kgs

[@ampy131]

Did u watch the video

[@myworldmylife8926]

I am 72 kg converted to pounds

[@noelsingh7065]

Y I can't say 35kgs n 77lbs, instead of 35kg n 77lb.

[@samisaac3908]

I think the method is wrong for lbs to kg because when I do 33lb into kg I get 15 kg like the answer you got but when I do 15 kg into lbs I get 3lbs

[@myworldmylife8926]

[@robertveith6383]

*@ tecmath* -- Writing "70 + 7 = 77 lb" is wrong. You have several other wrong statements like this in the video.

[@vire559]

Tks a lot, but how to convert Lb to Kg?

[@tecmath]

Watch the whole video! Patience :)

[@vire559]

@@tecmath oops. i saw it :P

[@JacobArdelean]

are we not going to mention how 12kg is not 26.4 pounds? ok

[@rohansahi2091]

I’m first

[@tecmath]

Hooray!

[@pyroaddictando]

😁

[@mowahidshahbaz]

Or just get your calculator out and multiply/ divide by 2.2 Edit: I’m dumb

[@McPlaySpot]

It's nice to convert between the two without using a calculator.

[@tecmath]

2.2 mate...2.2lb per kg!

[@erikkonstas]

This is a mental process though, of course you're not going to do this with a calculator.
