Prompt#8: Math is a required subject. Explain why it is so important.

Personally, I don’t really care for math like that. But there are many reasons why math is important. One of them is that math revolves around our day to day lives. I say that because I’m sure everybody uses money or uses math in number form if not everyday at least a few times a day. You could use math to see how many miles you walk a day, to see how or tell much an item cost, or just to tell someone how old you are. All math basically is, is just equations that apply to everyday life and help you solve many problems that you come across.
Math is used all across the world to predict when the next earthquake may happen, to solve age old mysteries, and many more situations. Everybody uses math. Drug Dealers use it to separate there weed, cocaine, and etc in to weight such as grams, kilograms, and pounds. Math has been used by many generations and civilizations throughout history. Sometimes math supports theories and ideas that scientist and ordinary people propose. Math is used to estimate how much something weighs. And I feel that math is important because in today’s society you need some knowledge about math to succeed. You need it because if were to own a business, you would need to know how much resources and how many of your product you would be able to get off at a time. And would need to know math well to accomplish that and run a productive business.
Overall I think math is useful in all areas of society now. You could use math to determine the population of the world today. That’s all I basically think math is important for.
