I'm really bad at math. :(

Jan 5, 2016 by Obstreperous
Does anybody have any tips on how to do better at #Numbers? I'm usually alright with counting the dots and blocks but the mathematical problems always slow me down because I have to pull out a calculator and do them. :\

Does anyone also have tips on how I can get better at math in general? I'm in 10th grade. :P

Practice tbh. I'm good at mental maths but tbh, Numbers is bull-poop mathematically speaking. 2+2 = 2×2 = 4, but if you say ×, you lose.
And ×1 is the same as ÷1, but if you say ÷, you lose points.
   
Sometimes, it's better to just guess. Guess with logic. Consider it like chunks. If you multiply by 5, you're adding the number 5 times, so pick the number which looks like it's 5x that. If you divade by 5, imagine it being given out to 5 people.
   
It really does take practice to be good at mental maths. What works for me may not work for you. :(
