The Great Percentage Switcheroo
The mathematical mind-explosion moment! When you realize that calculating 4% of 75 (which seems tricky) is exactly the same as calculating 75% of 4 (which is trivial).

Mathematicians call this the multiplicative property, but normal humans call it "why didn't they teach us this in school instead of making us suffer?!"
