Common Mistakes made by students in high school mathematics.

 As a mathematics lover as well as a teacher, I have seen many students making simple but recurrent mistakes in school-level mathematics. These silly mistakes make the students score low in their examinations.

for example:

solve x(x-3) = 0

here most of the students solve like this

  x-3 =0

or, x= 3

But it's wrong. The reason behind this is 

when we open the brackets we have x^2 which means it becomes a quadratic equation. And we should know that each quadratic equation has two definite solutions. 

Therefore, x= 0 and 3 will be the true solution.

We can find such mistakes in large numbers in mathematics. this is just due to lack of concept on the topic.

What to do then??

Simple, grab the concept on the topic.

You can find more such recurring mistakes and their remedy in the specially designed video.
