Maybe we should start calling it 0.2, but somehow that doesn’t sound like it has the appeal. ??

I'll second the metric system, feck the inch fraction bs ?? I'm poop as math so that won't work for me ?

 

[Jshaff16]

Fractions are easy. You get used to it after time.

“Horses for courses” as they say.

Im very good at maths, so what I’m no better than anyone else. I believe maths is easy it’s just taught poorly.

 

[Z.hb71]

I'm good at when there's a proper formula, like in physics that I'm doing it's fairly easy when I figure out the formulas, when there too many variables and you really need to think about it and rearange poop I'm not so good. And forget about geometry, I'm absolute horse poop at that.

 

[RcJunkie13]

Im taking geometry, im not bad at it, but it is so feking boring

Don’t be embarrassed, I used to think I was bad at maths because I didn’t work things out the same way I was being taught.
My dad wrote books on economics and I studied engineering as an adult and my eyes were opened.
I could honestly go on for ages about this stuff and I’m happy to help anyone who wants to know.

I’m not sure this is the forum for it though, but don’t think for minute your bad at maths, trust me it’s the way it’s taught.

I left school at 13 yet I have an accredited engineering degree without the qualifications in between.

Work that one out.

Milo.

The way they teach math now is flat out stupid. I cant even make heads or tails of it.
