Its true when they say " use it or lose it". I have forgotten all of these things over my 40 years. Keep the construction videos coming.

Coversions are incorrect. To be correct, decimal inch must be converted into base 16 (not base 10) because the measure tape is based 16 [the tape divides each inch into 16 equal parts: 1/16, 2/16, ... and 16/16]. For example, to convert a 0.5 decimal inch into a fraction inch you time it by the base 16/16 [0.5x16/16= 8/16 = 1/2]. Same for any other decimal inch you see. Just that simple but maybe hard to see it at first.

IT'S SOOO EASY. 0.0625 x 8 = 0.5/8th", 0.0625 x 16 = 1/16th", etc. etc. Also 0.07 x 32 = 2.24/32nd Inch. Or 4.48/64th, Or like you said, 0.07 x 128 = 8.96/128th Inch. 4 Hundredths short of 9/128th of an Inch.

MARK 1 Yes, it`s easy. All of the videos are 1st-year apprentice material. At the colleges, 45% of 1st year apprentices drop out, most because of math. Inches (fraction or decimal) are not taught in middle or high school math class. People need to be shown and taught, so I made a bunch of these videos. Eventually I`ll get to 2nd, 3rd and 4th year material as well. Thanks for watching.

@alexaguirre16373 жыл бұрын
this is one of the better videos I've come across, I'm learning this for welding. Unfortunately it seems like these videos only show the more obvious easy decimals to work with, and when I try to do it on a different one it doesn't seem to work for me. Example I have one that says convert .062 to a fraction and from what I've seen they say it's 1/16. I seem to end up with 31/500 so how does 31/500 get reduced to a tape measure fraction? how do they arrive at 1/16? now when it's .0625 I arrived at 1/16. lol I'm lost
@apprenticemath3 жыл бұрын
Sorry about the delay, this you do: 0.062 x 16 (this is your denominator) = 0.992 (this is your numerator) So what's 0.992/16? Kinda close to 1/16. Some rounding is done to approximate decimals so they can be located on a ruler. Try: 0.4536 x 16 = 7.2576, so its about 7/16. Kinda. Due to rounding. Or 0.4536 x 32 = 14.5152, so it's about 15/32 Or 0.4536 x 64 = 29.0304, minimal rounding is needed, 29/64 is pretty close
