A way to remember it is to remember why that’s the case
8% of 50 = (0.01 • 8) • 50 = 8 • (0.01 • 50) = 50% of 8
It all just boils down to the fact that multiplication is associative and commutative (aka u can multiply numbers in any order you want)
Ask me if you have any questions (im a math tutor i love teaching math) 😊
Yeah in my experience watching youtube videos passively is a waste of time. Time is better spent struggling with math practice problems and guiding him theough it when he’s stuck :-)
