Mental Math & Time

In yesterdays class the first thing that Mr Kuropatwa said to us was how it is important to learn and not to be afraid of asking questions. Mr Kuropatwa had a example on how it is important to learn. Like a doctor it takes hard work and years to become a doctor. If you had 50% in all of your subjects in school you wont be able to become a doctor because you have low marks. Only the people that really wants to learn and gets 90% or over can become a doctor. In mental math he explain the things we had learn from the past like finding 10%. If the number is 2004, 10 percent of that number is 200.4. All you have to do is put a dot one place from the left. Also we learned how to round to the nearest quarter of an hour. So there are 60 minutes in a hour. 4 quarters add up to a dollar so its like a clock but its not 25 quarters its 15 quarters. Because 15 +15 = 30 min that's half an hour of the clock+15+15 = 60 min which equals up to 1 Hour or 15x4 = 60 min as well. Just REMEMBER 4 equal sliced pizzas when your looking at a clock. Now pushing to the nearest quarter. If the time is 7:09 you push it to the nearest quarter of an hour. So it would be 7:15. If it was 7:07 you have to push the clock back and it would be 7:00 because its the nearest quarter to that time.

calculiting time

yesterday, I learn about how to find the total of this question 9:15 to 12:30. first,subtract the 9 10 12 and we get 3. If you use a calculator, you will get negative 3,But we were talking about the hours, so you must put the negative sign even if you got it. with negative, because there's no negative sign when were talking about hour's. then the next thing to do subtract 15 minutes to 60 minutes(1 hour) and you got 45 minutes,then subtract again the 30 minutes to 60 minutes (1 hour) and you got 30 minutes.then subtract those minutes that you subtract before you will get 15 minutes. then the final answer is 3:15 minutes
