7.34% recommend this excellent Math channel: ( Mathmatchpoint) to everyone who wants to become good at Math. He is going to teach you everything about Math the easy way, from the basic to the advanced topics. The great thing is that his videos are categorized within playlists. It is easy to know which video to watch next. This was the least I could do for him (let others know about his videos). Because of this guy I got 97% on my Math test.

1% I googled one: imagine your employee sells apples (a), oranges (o) and bananas (b). this week he sold 5 apples, 3 oranges and 8 bananas and made 53€ profit. last week he sold 2a, 1o and 2b and made 16€ profit. finally the week before he sold 6a, 4o and 3b and made 38€ profit. know you ask him for the price of each fruit and he forgot. you can answer this questen your self by solving following system of equations

5a+3o+8b=53

2a+1o+2b=16

6a+4o+5b=38

good luck! =)
