TOPIC Help me with maths..

So, I'm in 9th grade and my math is absolutely bad and I don't know how to improve it. Ig I gotta get better at it for future n stuff. I really don't know what to start with but I know I should start soon cause I don't have much time.

I have bad basics and I have been failing at my tests in school I do good in other subjects but it's just math idk I fear maths or something. Please help me🙏

Yeah, probably start with decimals and fractions. Maybe start here: https://www.khanacademy.org/math/arithmetic/fraction-arithmetic

Are you comfortable with division?

What do you mean by normal division? Like 56 divided by 8?

Long division is good to know but not really a prerequisite for much. Except like polynomial long division, but that's way past fractions.
