IMPORTANCE OF MATHEMATICS IN OUR DAILY LIFE - PART 2
5. Math makes you a better cook (or baker)
With a
knowledge of math, for example, you can quickly deduce that a half-cup of flour
is the same thing as eight tablespoons of flour. This can prove handy if
you find that your half-cup measure is missing. Likewise, if you are
cooking from a recipe that serves 4 people, but you need to feed 8 people, your
math skills tell you that you can simply double all of the necessary
ingredients. Without math, you may not have enough food (or have too much
food) to feed your guests…
6. Great career options
Mathematics
offers a great career opportunity for students. In most careers, employers want
to hire employees who can solve complex problems. If you are good at math and
have a keen ability to solve complex problems, you are at the top of applying
for many jobs. Finance analysis and cost estimation are part of every business.
7. Math supports logical reasoning and
analytical thinking
A
strong understanding of math concepts means more than just number sense. It
helps us see the pathways to a solution. Equations and word problems need to be
examined before determining the best method for solving them. And in many
cases, there’s more than one way to get to the right answer.
It’s
no surprise that logical reasoning and analytical thinking improve alongside
math skills. Logic skills are necessary at all levels of mathematical
education.
8. Math sharpens your memory
Learning
mental math starts in elementary school. Students learn addition tables, then
subtraction, multiplication and division tables. As they master those skills,
they’ll begin to memorize more tips and tricks, like adding a zero to the end
when multiplying by 10. Students will memorize algorithms and processes
throughout their education.
Using your memory often keeps it sharp. As your child grows and continues to use math skills in adulthood, their memory will remain in tip top shape.
Very helpful thank you.
