TEAS Test MATH Review: Standard and Metric Conversions (Between units)

[@thursdaysproduction3290]

I like this video.. Wish you add some practice questions

[@elizabethwright3276]

Could not understand this concept you made it so simple! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!! You are helping me improve my math score!

[@JakaraLewis]

You're welcome, I'm so happy that I could help 😀

[@delandisdillard3527]

Great job ma'am. My (homeschooled) kids need to see someone else other than dad teaching this way.

[@JakaraLewis]

You're welcome, I am so happy that I can help 🥰I'll have new videos for math at the elementary grade level if you have any kiddos in that age range 🥰

I am confused here. The first one we multiplied and the second one we divided. How do we know when we are suppose to one or the other?

[@Vener349]

She leaves out some steps that a non-math person could get confused by. I've been there. Write the problem up as 128/1 X 1/54. (Notice there are two fractions already, so continue to write the fraction sign in your answer!) Multiply across the top, (you get 128) Write a fraction sign, and write 128 on top as the numerator. Then multiply across the bottom (you get 2.54) and write that as the denominator. You should have written =128/2.54. This shows you need to divide. In her first problem, the fractions in the problem were both denominators over 1, and after multiplying across, the answer is 22.875/1 ***If you divide any number by 1 it is still that number*** (she just didn't elaborate on that step) For example, 2/1 is 2 or 53/1 is just 53.

Why did we multiply the first problem

[@julianacheriza1575]

How do you know if you have to multiple it or divide it

[@triniD25]

I watched this video and I still did not get it lol! I guess I am confused by how do you know when to multiply and divide?

how would you convert 2 gallons to millimeters please. Thank you!

[@AnalyzewithAstephen]

When we get our solution...do ever have to round? Like if there is a 75 we wouldn't round up using 5 and up rule??

[@steph00p9]

Thank you. I never was able to convert because I was always confused, but this has helped me so much. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@angelicawilliams5706]

does anyone know how to set up problem 12 from the book pg 51

[@latoyapoole5964]

This has been extremely helpful. But there are 0.914 meters in one yard.

[@lacyehepler8521]

Thank you for your help. Also side note but your style is always on point.

[@JakaraLewis]

Lacye Hepler thank you 😊

[@AZNINVAZHUN]

Is it also possible to just line up both yards at the top and meters at the bottom and cross multiple to solve for the missing number?

[@DazzoRN7]

Thank you for helping me understand this stuff! My high school teachers would be so proud! I did horrible back then. I was wondering what conversions you think we need to memorize?

[@JakaraLewis]

you're welcome 🥰 I have a cheat sheet available on my website that can be downloaded for free, it includes everything that needs to be memorized for the exam www.lewis-wilderpublishing.com

[@elizabethhernandez3507]

I took a practice exam and I freaked out when a similar problem like this came up. It did not provide the conversion so I was completely lost. I had to go look at the answer key to see what they had done and that still did not make sense to me. I hope they do provide the conversions on the test otherwise I will be completely confused. My problem wanted me to go from kilometers to miles. I google it and one kilometer to mile was 1.609 but the answer key in the book was 0.62. I'm really afraid if they don't provide the conversion I will miss these because I immediately came back to your video and its honestly a given answer if they provide the conversions. It was put as a word problem, not sure if that's they didn't provide it? I can write it out if you like.

[@Galfam]

did you take the test already? if so, did they provide the conversions sheet? I am barely going to take it this upcoming month and this section is difficult without the conversion sheets. Thank you in advance.

[@staceyestes7938]

Can you touch on Fahrenheit and Celsius?

[@JakaraLewis]

There's a video on that topic on my channel already.

[@wandajay3028]

Please post more videos.

[@jg7738]

Thank you for these excellent videos! So helpful!!

[@crystalmorales5375]

How do you work # 12 and #17 in your book page # 51?

[@Doualoverher]

Yes I need to know how to do those two numbers too.

[@Bree48646]

This is hard 💕, how do u know to multiply and divide exactly. Can u explain it more simple..ty ❤️

[@JakaraLewis]

thank you for your comment, check out my conversions mini review where I provided an alternative method that is easier to understand kzbin.info/www/bejne/Zoq2nGyoeqykhdU

Hope that made sense 😂

[@touseefmahmud5970]

Is formula given in teas exam? Like 1 inch=2.54 cm

[@JakaraLewis]

yes the formula is given, unless it's a common conversion such as 1 foot = 12 inches

[@trenettabell3155]

Very helpful Thank You!

[@sharondajackson3196]

Omg I did it right.. ❤️❤️❤️

[@shauntelwinston6404]

Thank you!! 🤗
