by Jason Marshall This is our very first Math Dude article, and in honor of that were going all the way back to basics to answer some fundamental questions about math that should help you evaluate the status of your relationship with numbers. But let
by Jason Marshall In the last two articles weve learned how to calculate two types of average values: the mean and the median. Today, were going to continue where we left off and talk about how median averaging can be useful in everyday, real life si
by Jason Marshall In the previous article we talked about using the number line to help you keep your signs straight when adding positive and negative integers. In this article were taking things one step furthernot just adding positive and negative
by Jason Marshall In the last article, we learned that there are several ways to calculate the average value of a sample of data. We focused on one such method, the arithmetic mean, and used it to calculate the average number of potato chips in a bag
by Jason Marshall In the last article, we began talking about mathematical sequencesin particular, a type of sequence known as an arithmetic sequence. Today, were going to turn our attention to another type of sequence called a geometric sequence. In

图片 by Jason Marshall Some math is functional. Some math is fun. And some math is simply stunning. If that last description sounds improbable to you, then today just might change your mind. Because now that weve covered enough ground, were going t
by Jason Marshall Do you remember your very first encounter with numbers? No, I dont either. But I imagine it might have involved someone pointing to each of my fingers in turn, and with great fanfare, counting aloud: One, Two, Three, Four, Five! And
图片1 图片2 by Jason Marshall In the last article, we discovered that integers alone are not sufficient to fully describe the world around uswe need the fractions existing between the integers too. (In learning that, we also learned that fraction

by Jason Marshall Todays article will walk you through the first steps of kicking your calculator dependency. This isnt something we can accomplish in a single article, so well be revisiting this topic periodically. Today, were kicking things off by
by Jason Marshall In the last few articles, weve talked about fractions and percentages, and soon enough well see that these ideas naturally lead us into the world of decimal numbers. But before we head down that path, lets take a quick detour to tal
by Jason Marshall Weve spent the last few articles building our numerical vocabulary from the ground up. Today, were going to talk about something that sounds hard, but is actually pretty easy...and very useful too: the commutative property of additi
by Jason Marshall In recent articles, weve talked about two methods of calculating average values, the mean and the median, and weve talked about some everyday uses for them such as how to use median averaging to get better photos. But thats not all
