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 .
