Best Answer

You study math so that you understand how it works. Having a calculator is fine and dandy, but how will you know what operations to use. A good analogy is why should you learn directions if you have a GPS. The GPS will get you around if you know the exact address, but if you don't then it's useless. A calculator only works if you know which buttons to press. Studying math is not just about learning how the functions work, but also learning how to think about a problem that you don't understand and come up with a way to solve it. The calculator can only do your work if you tell it what to do.

Why do kids need to study math?

Imagine a world where no one knew how to do math. If people just used computers for their calculations, what would happen when there was a new problem that required a specific calculator? If nobody knew how to do the math, there would be no one to make the calculator and then there would be no solution to the problem.

How do you study maths?

Try to do problems (of the agenda) in your free time. If you want to, you can set up a number of problems, and try to finish them as quickly as possible. Then try improving on that time... The best way to study math is simple repetition -- keep practicing and repeating the facts over and over until you get them right! A study deck is great for learning math facts -- see the related question to learn how to make one.
