Problem: Article: If you're just starting out, try using a free beginner's app, such as JoyTunes Piano Maestro. It includes interactive exercises and games, and it tracks your progress and gives you feedback based on your playing. Sight reading, or reading and playing a score at first sight, is an essential skill, but it can be tough to master. Try apps like Read Ahead and SightRead4Piano to drill your sight reading abilities. Both apps have free demo practices, but you'll need to pay to access more levels. For unfamiliar or complex pieces, it can be helpful to see what the keys should look like as they're struck during tricky rhythms. The Plern Piano app allows you to upload music and creates a representation of keys being struck as the music scrolls across the page. Plern Piano also allows you to compose and virtually play pieces from scratch.
Summary: Try using an app that teaches basic piano skills. Download a sight reading app. Watch a virtual piano play a score note by note.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Before submerging the hat in water, you need to see if the dye will run. Dip a white cloth in warm water and rub it on a small, inconspicuous area of the hat. If the dye comes off on the rag, don't wash or submerge the hat. If it doesn't, the item is colorfast and can be washed. Buy a new hat instead of trying to wash one that isn't colorfast; the hat will likely be ruined if you do try to wash it. Put the soap in the bottom of the bucket or sink and allow it to fill up with warm water. Agitate the water to make bubbles. Avoid using a detergent containing bleach or a bleach alternative, which could fade the color of the hat. Before placing the hat in the water, you should pre-treat the stain. Spray a stain treatment product directly onto the fabric, concentrating on the areas that soak up the most sweat, like the interior band. Dip the hat in the sink or bucket and swirl it around several times. Then, let it soak in the water for a few hours to allow the soap to break down the sweat and oil in the fabric. You can stir the water or swirl the hat around every hour or so, if desired. Remove the hat from the bucket or drain the water from the sink. Use cold, running water to rinse the sweat and soap from the hat. Continue rinsing until the water runs clear and there are no more bubbles. Gently squeeze out the excess water, taking care not to ruin the shape of the hat. Roll up a small towel and place it inside the hat. Reshape the bill, if applicable. Then, place the hat near a fan or open window so it gets as much air flow as possible. Let it dry fully before wearing it again, which could take up to 24 hours. Avoid letting the hat dry in direct sunlight, which could fade the color. Don't dry the hat in the clothes dryer either, which may shrink or damage the hat.

SUMMARY: Find out if the fabric is colorfast. Fill a bucket with warm water and 1UStbsp (15ml) of laundry detergent. Spray a stain treatment product on the hat to loosen sweat and grime. Let the hat soak in the soapy water for up to 4 hours. Rinse the hat thoroughly with cold water. Stuff the hat with a towel and allow it to air dry.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: About 3 pounds (1.4kg) will be enough to fill most chimneys, and for most grills. Your chimney may also have a fill line. If so, use that as a guide. A charcoal chimney is basically a metal cylinder with a grate at the bottom, holes in the side, and a handle on the side. You place the charcoal inside, light it efficiently and safely, then pour the briquettes in your grill when they're ready. Lighter fluid can be dangerous and is not necessary if you use a charcoal chimney.
Summary: Lay briquettes in a charcoal chimney.

Since U.S. standard units and metric units do not follow the same scale, you'll need to know the mathematical relationship between the unit you have and the unit you need when converting one to the other. A few standard to metric conversions worth memorizing include: 1 inch = 2.54 centimeters 1 inch = 25.4 millimeters 1 foot = 30.48 centimeters 1 yd = 0.91 meters 1 mile = 1.6 kilometers A few metric to standard conversions worth memorizing include: 1 millimeter = 0.04 inches 1 centimeter = 0.39 inches 1 centimeter = 0.0325 feet 1 meter = 3.28 feet 1 meter = 1.09 yards 1 kilometer = 0.62 miles When you know how many of the intended unit exists for one of your original units, you can multiply the original value by the conversion factor. Example 1: Convert 5.4 inches to centimeters. There are 2.54 centimeters in 1 inch, so: 5.4 * 2.54 = 13.72 centimeters Example 2: Convert 13.72 centimeters to inches. There are 0.39 inches in 1 centimeter, so: 13.72 * 0.39 = 5.4 inches If you only know how many of the original unit exists for one of the intended unit, you'll need to divide the original value by the conversion factor. Example 1: Convert 5.4 inches to centimeters. There are 0.39 inches in 1 centimeter, so: 5.4 / 0.39 = 13.8 centimeters Example 2: Convert 13.8 centimeters to inches. There are 2.54 centimeters in 1 inch, so: 13.8 / 2.54 = 5.4 inches
