@tangmathgames: Multiplying fractions explained simply. It's about 'groups of' just like whole numbers. We take a fraction of a fraction to find the combined amount. #Fractions #MathTips #LearnOnTikTok #Education
To everyone saying “my god just multiply across.” Yes. We know that. But kids need to conceptualize and SEE what it looks like. There is a lot of power in estimation.

For everyone saying it's harder: this isn't explaining how to GET the answer, this is WHY the answer is what it is. This is Understanding, not just rote knowledge of "multiple the denominator"

Come on people, he's not teaching to students. He's teaching how to teach. It is called "PEDAGOGICAL".

It's explanations like this that demonstrate the difference between someone who can instruct vs someone who can teach.
Thank you!

I'm 35 years old and have never SEEN fractions explained this way. I was simply taught to multiply across, but this visual just connected dots that I had never connected before. amazing!

This is the first time this method has made any sense to me.

I think if people find this more confusing it’s probably because they have memorised the formula rather than understanding what is functionally happening.

Teaching the “why” is just as important as teaching the “how”!

When I studied civil engineering, this is how math was taught to us. We need to learn the CONCEPT, not just the formula. Math problems get increasingly more complicated and learning the concept ensures you will never get lost. All of that on the 1st semester of my 1st year. I didn't finish but def stuck w/ me.

This made me cry because this is the first time this has made sense for my brain and now I now I can do this in future. I dropped math in year 9 because I had a different teacher almost every year and was so frustrated with the experience of feeling behind

THIS is why I never UNDERSTOOD fractions. I need to understand everything about it . multiply made kind of sense because just multiply across. but I never understood why or how. and then with adding/subtracting, I still don't understand wtf is going on

to me learning that “times” means “of” is more direct. he said it at the very end - what is 1/3 of 1/2 - much faster route to the picture

If I had seen this at 12, maybe I wouldn’t have to relearn it at 34 to help my now 10 and 12 year old kids 🤣😭
