Additional Details\n\nI'm unable to use a calculator!! It's a basic test for a job, i'm fine in everything else except maths!! I just need to know how to do basic division sums! I haven't touched maths for 10 years since i left school!! Trust me if i could i'd use a calculator!!

Hi, I am jam-packed with excellent maths websites, some of these websites you may have to become a member for but there top on stuff dude!\nI am a Yr 8 Student myself and I have to study a lot for examinations and I got tons of websites.\nEVERYTHING MATHS\nhttp://www.mathforum.org\nDIRECTED NUMBERS\nhttp://www.mathsrevision.net/gcse/pages.php?page=22\nGOOGLEPLEX\nhttp://www.fpx.de/fp/Fun/Googolplex/\nACTIVE REVISION - BECOME MEMBER FOR FREE\nhttp://www.activerevision.com\n\nI hope this helped you. \nKind Regards, Timothy H.

Well, I'd say start with the basics. Start trying to do things without a calculator. And get a math tutor. Try to find a really good one, who thinks they're up to your challenge. I've had some good math teachers in my time. They can make it fun. I'd suggest someone older like your age. Good luck!

This is pretty basic algebra and if you are in an electrical certification program or any other program for that mater you may want to consider taking some math courses before you try to continue.  I'm not saying that you can't nuc your way through it, but it will be allot easier on you if you take a step back and strengthen your math skills before tackling an electrician course.

you might have learning differents. You could be tested to see if you are then you could find help.  You could get a tutor or ask a teacher for help with math.

im great with algebra, ive been doing it for the past 4 years now non stop, email me and ill be more than happy to show you how to do it step by step and answer you questions\nzinger_38@yahoo.com

Can you factor the numerator?\n\nI guess not, but UMR math major ignores your denominator in the original problem.

The most important thing for you to know is your own mathematical skills.  You must know how to add, subtract, multiply, & divide.  NEVER be fully dependent on the machine!  You need to have a really good idea of what the total should be without the machine.  This is so that you can do it on your own in case the machine is broken or the power is out.

this has happened to me before on my 89. it's usually when the expression is too complicated--that is, it would take the calculator more memory than it has to solve it. so i'd recommend trying to first simplify the expression and then enter it. For instance, don't leave things in terms like sin(2) when you can just get an approximate number for that. maybe that's it?

I can help, I've taken College Algebra, Calc. I, Calc. II and I've also taken many other math courses, and I'm also studying to be a computer programmer, so if you need help you can contact me at assassin7262002@yahoo.com

ok first you have to distribute on each side, remember to watch the (-) (+) signs.\n\n- 4 (x + 2) - 11 = 2 (- 2x -3) - 13\n_________________________\n  -8x + (-8) - 11= - 4x -6 - 13\n\nnow that you are done distributing the 4 and 2, you must start isolating the X's, I like the x on the left, and so will work it that way. it makes no difference though....if you like it on the right, that is fine too. so I will start with the 4, and remember whatever you do to one side you must do to the other. \n\n    -8x + (- 8) - 11 = -4x - 6 - 13\n    +4x                     +4x\n__________________________\n     -4x + (-8) -11= - 6 -13\n\nremembering you cannot subtract with positive and negative numbers  so be careful of the signs and change/change the subtraction to plus signs. so let's do that next.\n\n  -4x + (-8)  + (-11)= -6 + (-13 )\n\nnow that you have changed the signs as above, do the operations on both sides.\n\n   -4x + (-19) = (-19)\n\nnow yo umust further isolate the X, so move the (-19) from left to right, again what you do to one side you must do to the other.\n\n    -4x + (-19) = (-19)\n             +19     + 19\n________________\n              -4x  = 0\n\nnow divide out the  -4, which into zero is zero, therefore x= 0, thus any number plugged in for the x would result in an "x=0" answer. \n\nhope this helped, for more help ask yahoo answers, or try www.purplemath.com, it is a great math site!

You won't find anything on the Internet that it explains things more clearly than your math book.  The only way to get help beyond that would be to ask questions directly to a teacher or tutor.\n\nYou probably should have been asking those questions sooner than the night before the final exam.

try working with BODMAS (BRACKETS Of Multiplication Division Addition Subtraction) and of course equalising the denominator. Hope that helps

"just need to memorize all the formulas and keep practicing maths even if u dont get it... it helps in long run.."\n\nThat is terrible advice. Do not listen to that. That may be a way to pass math classes, but it is not a way of understanding math. (I refuse, to this day to memorize the quadratic formula) I guess it depends on what exactly you are struggling with. Algebra is probably the one that gets a lot of people, and once you don't understand that, you're kinda screwed on calculus & all others that follow.

Multiplication and division are basically just a matter of memorization.  I know if you're just learning it, its hard.  I remember having trouble as well when I first started.  But keep at it.  It will get frustrating at times, but keep at it.  The problem with math is that as you go farther, you need to remember everything you've already learned.  But otherwise, it can be real easy.  Just keep at it and you'll do fine.

I struggled with algebra in high school and college, but I soon discovered how valuable it is in everyday life. For example, I use algebra to determine the percentage of return on my investments, the dosage of medicine for my cat depending on her weight, and how to prepare a meal for six people if the recipe is for four people. But perhaps the most common use of algebra is in finding "unknown" numbers. For instance, I want to know if $4 is an adequate tip for a $30 meal, because I happen to have four $1 bills and one $5 bill. The unknown number is the percentage of the tip. I know servers should get between 15 and 20 percent. So, to determine if $4 is enough, I turn to a simple algebra equation:\n\n4 = x percent of 30\n4 = (x)(30)\n4/30 = x\n13.3 = x\n\nA $4 tip is only 13.3%--not quite enough. So I leave the $5 bill, which, algebra tells me, is 16.6% of $30--a better tip.\n\nBy the way, even if you have a calculator, you need to know how to set up the equation.\n\nLearning algebra offers advantages that go beyond equations and math problems. It teaches you how to process problems of all types: how to set up systems for solving problems in general.\n\nI hated algebra. But it's the one math subject that I use all the time, especially in my own business. So pay attention and learn as much as you can!
