Algebra is used, for instance, you want to carpet a room.

the area of a rectangle is the length of the side times the width & if it's written in feet, i.e. a room 8' x 6' would be 48 sq feet. it would be called the square footage of that area (example: how many square feet of carpet do you need to cover the floor of a room). You would need 48 squares 1' x 1' to cover the area

you use it to figure out miles/gallon and many, many more things on a daily basis
