Math is important for many reasons. If you didn't know math, you would never be able to properly buy anything, add up your paycheck, or see if you have enough money for something. You would never be able to see if you have the correct change, help your future children in math, or double the ingredients in a recipe.

For the world as a whole, Math today is extreemely important. It is however not extreemely important for everybody to know a lot of math.

On a scale from 1 to 10 where 10 is most important.

Math would probably be a 5.

As of such, it may seem that math isn't that important, but how important it is depends on where you are and where you want to go.

If you are at school and want to become an Astrophysicist, then math would rate 9 to 10 on the same scale.

Other skills can outweigh the need for math though. You can become a great part of the society with only general knowledge of math.

A person with vivid imagination and great knowledge of ones own language could become a respected author and writer of books. No great math skills involved.

A person that is very good with languages can work as a translator. In general no great skills of math needed.
