What is the importance of mathematics?

Answer 1

Hey!

I just laid down a laminate floor. The planks were sold in packs of 8 and covered a certain square area. I had to measure my room and work out what the total area was and how many packs I needed, allowing 1 extra pack for offcuts.

When I finished I only had a few planks left in one pack, just as I had calculated.

I could not have done that if I didn't understand maths. I could either guess or:-

I would have to call someone in (at extra expense)

I would have had to keep going to the depot, to get more timber and run the chance they would sell out, or change the color.

I would be left with too many packs left over and live with the waste or take them back. (extra journey, time, waste.)

You need maths in most aspects of modern living, without it you will get ripped off or left confused. Do try to learn and do the best you can.
