The most common example of the Greatest Integer Function is the Post Office. Postage is paid based on weight. For example, from between 1 and 2 ounces, you might pay $1.25 postage. However, when you hit 2 ounces to almost 3 ounces you pay $2.00. This progression is a greatest integer function and is currently used today by the Post Office. You could probably get their rate chart and see.

Because that is how the function is defined. And there are many occasions when it is applied in normal life. If you require 3.2 cans of paint to paint a wall you will need to buy 4 cans, if a school wants to take 63 children and staff no a trip and a bus has only 30 seats, you will need three buses.
