How do I get better at math man… I never liked the subject as a kid so I barely paid attention. Now I’m kinda fucked..dont even fully know a 12 multiplication grid off by heart. I’d like to get better but I think it might be too late..Should I give up?

I'm still not fully convinced that math skill isn't simply genetic. Of course you can work at it, but you can work at anything, somebody who is naturally "stupid" is not going to be able to achieve as much in math as somebody that is genetically intelligent regardless of work.

Yeah I tend to agree. My parents are capable of doing math but I could tell its not something they are particularly skilled at. Still I wonder if it would be worthwhile for me to work at it,,.

put aside your pride and start with the basics. you can probably skip counting, adding, subtracting and multiplication, but if you don't know how things like decimals / fractions work, and basic stuff like that, then you definitely want to remedy this. next you move on to pre-algebra, then algebra, then geometry, then trig, then calculus, discrete math, and linear algebra. then just go where your interests take you. use khanacademy for the basic stuff. also patrickjmt, and paul's online math notes. best of luck to you

Play some math games on phone. Luminosity has some fun ones. Your times tables will be restored in short order

well...Start learning the multiplication table then?
You already know 1, 2, 5 and 10 if you have half a brain.
Then you can easily do 9 with a trick of decrementing left number and adding right number up to 10.
9*6 = 54 because 6-1 is 5 and 6+4 is 10. 54.
you can easily find 11 and 12 just by adding x*10 + x*2 or x*10 + x.
So now you know 1,2,5,9,10,11,12.
Then you just need to learn 3 and 4 and you're halfway done with 6,7 and 8.
Get at it retard.

Learn the multiplication table. Learn division.
Learn and understand fractions and percentages.
Then learn to solve linear equations.

That's all the math you really need to know and I assure you that you can learn them. You are smart enough to use a computer and make this thread so I don't see why not learn basic math.
Btw it shouldn't take you more than a couple of days but don't expect to develop good intuition on these if you are not really interested in math.
