Standard Deviants: Basic Math

The Standard Deviants, a group of young performers, use comedy to help students grasp the basic concepts of math. They take part in parodies of movies and TV shows while progressively moving through the lessons, and each section is followed by a review and a quiz. In this series, they cover addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Young woman sits on a box with 1 arm bent out and the other holding a number 1. Caption. Whole numbers. All the numbers would be whole numbers.

Young man stands with lips pursed and fingertips touching. Math equations read, 4 times 4 equals 16, 4, X minus 4 equals negative 16, and negative 4 times negative 4 equals blank. Text reads, "Basic math." Caption. Multiply 2 negative numbers.

Smiling young woman sits with her legs crossed and hands on knees. She floats above a math equation that reads, 581 divided by 34. Caption. The divisor, 34, goes to the left.

$Digital illustration of a pepperoni pizza divided into slices. Equation below reads, 6 over 6. Top fraction is labeled, part and slices there. Bottom fraction is labeled, whole and slices possible. Caption. The part and the whole are the same.$

Math equations on orange and yellow background. 7 over 12 plus 5 over 18. 12 is not a factor of 18. 18, 1 times 18 equals 18. Caption. By number to get to 18.

Low angle shot of a young man sitting in an armchair with his elbows resting on his knees. Math equation below reads, 19 over 6 plus 14 over 6 equals 33 over 6. Caption. So the sum is 33 over 6.

Young man smiles and holds hands out with fingertips touching. Text overlay reads, "Basic math," and the equation, 0.22 equals 22 percent. Caption. That gives us the answer, 22 percent.

Math equation progression is on sky blue background. Math equation reads, 1.86 times 2.3 leads to 558 and 3720 yields 4.278. Caption. Decimal point is between 4 and 2.
