00:00 | Good day and welcome to the Tech Math channel . | |
00:02 | What we're gonna be having a look at this video | |
00:04 | is how to mentally add numbers together . Okay . | |
00:06 | There's a larger numbers now . So we've been looking | |
00:10 | at these in previous videos . We're looking at how | |
00:12 | to do these using complementary numbers and a special way | |
00:15 | of adding . So use these little techniques , if | |
00:17 | you can remember how to do them , but now | |
00:19 | try to apply them These three numbers . You got | |
00:22 | five seconds . So how did you go with Oregon | |
00:26 | ? That's five seconds . Did you get 2308 if | |
00:30 | you did . Congratulations . Really good . Really happy | |
00:33 | with you . Uh , if not , we're going | |
00:35 | to have a look at how you might add these | |
00:37 | together and this does take a little bit of practice | |
00:39 | . Maybe five seconds is a little bit ambitious . | |
00:41 | Maybe we're looking at seven seconds here . Okay , | |
00:44 | so with this , I'm gonna show you how a | |
00:47 | little trick for adding these together . Now , last | |
00:49 | video , we were having a look at these . | |
00:51 | We were looking this idea of complementary numbers . Okay | |
00:54 | , these are numbers that add up 10-1 , annoyed | |
00:57 | two and eight . Three and seven . Four and | |
01:01 | 65 and five . And we're gonna be looking for | |
01:04 | these once again to try and add our numbers together | |
01:07 | a lot easier . But we're also going to be | |
01:08 | once again adding from left to right . Okay . | |
01:12 | So if you haven't seen those previous videos , have | |
01:15 | a look . If you'd probably be able to catch | |
01:17 | it up though , I must say . So we're | |
01:19 | gonna start out with some easy examples . What about | |
01:21 | we go 487 Plus 539 I want to recommend here | |
01:27 | is pause them and and first off , we'll show | |
01:29 | you how to do it . But for later , | |
01:30 | once pause them and give it a go . Doing | |
01:32 | yourself . So what we were doing with these Is | |
01:34 | we're adding it left , right and going as follows | |
01:37 | , 400 900 980 1010 . 1017 . 1026 . | |
01:48 | Okay , so we're adding it in this direction and | |
01:51 | we're not saying plus this plus this plus this . | |
01:54 | We're just going 400 900 , 980 , So we're | |
02:02 | adding that in this direction . Okay , you see | |
02:04 | that this will get bigger and bigger and some of | |
02:07 | these numbers ? Yeah , you might be able to | |
02:08 | look at and go , hey , I could add | |
02:09 | this particular set of numbers together quicker this way and | |
02:13 | that's really good . But we're gonna try and get | |
02:15 | in the habit of doing these for bigger strings and | |
02:17 | numbers also . Okay , So with these later , | |
02:20 | once pause them , give them ago . So what | |
02:22 | about we have 795 And we're going to add 313 | |
02:28 | to this . So again look for complementary numbers . | |
02:31 | We have These two are complementary . They make 1000 | |
02:35 | and then these two complementary they make 100 . So | |
02:37 | 1100 1105 . 1190 . Okay . You see how | |
02:46 | these complementary numbers together ? So you can just straight | |
02:48 | away block them together . With 1000 1001 100 105 | |
02:54 | . Night . Okay . How did you go with | |
02:59 | that ? Good . Maybe you were going 700 . | |
03:02 | Okay . And doing it that way . That's Okay | |
03:04 | . Also . Alright , just start trying to look | |
03:06 | for these complementary numbers . Okay . What about we | |
03:09 | go another one . What about 597 and 407 . | |
03:15 | Okay . So let's start adding these together , Pause | |
03:19 | at 1st . Maybe 500 , 900 , And I | |
03:26 | reckon this is actually a lot more accurate way of | |
03:29 | doing because you're not trying to carry numbers backwards , | |
03:32 | then you're actually you would be thinking that , but | |
03:34 | I think it's a lot more accurate method . Okay | |
03:39 | . Given I'll probably get one wrong now and then | |
03:40 | all the people say you got this one wrong ? | |
03:42 | Okay . All right . Um what about we do | |
03:46 | this 1 ? 380 7 88 . Okay . What | |
03:56 | about we add these together now ? Okay . So | |
03:58 | there is some complimentary numbers . We got 1,000 1900 | |
04:02 | and then we've got 1910 . 2076 . 2084 . | |
04:11 | Okay . How did you go with that ? Yeah | |
04:14 | . You're getting it that fast . I hope so | |
04:17 | . Okay , let's let's go a couple more and | |
04:20 | then we're gonna get back to that original example . | |
04:21 | Okay ? So and I reckon you probably go that | |
04:24 | really fast . Okay . So 390 for 173 . | |
04:31 | How did you go with this and pause it ? | |
04:33 | Give it a go . All right . So we | |
04:36 | have 304 105 105 190 . 660 . And this | |
04:41 | whole lot here is a big complimentary number . Okay | |
04:44 | . All right . Up to 10 to 660 plus | |
04:46 | stand here is 670 . Okay . I'm all very | |
04:50 | good . Yeah . Okay . What about What about | |
04:55 | a big string of digits now let's let's do let's | |
04:58 | do four of the 612 . 73 . 7 38 | |
05:05 | and 4 50 for now . I did also get | |
05:08 | these numbers of a random number generator . So I | |
05:10 | wasn't actually choosing , I thought I don't want to | |
05:13 | choose numbers that are too easy or too hard or | |
05:15 | deliberately subconsciously choose whatever . So we'll see how we | |
05:19 | go with this . Just what I tell you that | |
05:20 | . So we have 1000 1700 , 2500 , 2510 | |
05:33 | . Okay . 2517 , 2573 . Okay . How | |
05:46 | did you go with that ? Good . How did | |
05:47 | I go with that ? I'm not sure . Okay | |
05:49 | . Hopefully I got a good answer with that . | |
05:50 | I'm pretty sure I did . So let's see . | |
05:53 | He went on that you go on the first question | |
05:55 | . Okay , so here we go . All right | |
05:57 | , so let's have a look at how fast can | |
06:00 | you do it ? Okay . Like I said , | |
06:02 | five seconds , maybe a bit ambitious . So we | |
06:04 | have 915 102,100 then we can add these complementary ones | |
06:09 | together . So we get 496,000 2302308 . Okay , | |
06:21 | because it was that complementary number there . Okay . | |
06:25 | Okay . So hopefully that's all very good there . | |
06:27 | Yeah . Um Anyway , hopefully that was of some | |
06:31 | help to you . We'll see you next time . | |
06:33 | Okay . Bye . |
