MATHS IN DAILY LIFE
The language of mathematics is numbers and it is the only language shared by all people regardless of culture , religion or gender.Roger Bacon, an English philosopher and scientist stated :
"Neglect of mathematics works injury to all knowledge, since he who is ignorant of it cannot know the other sciences or the things of the world."
Adding up the cost of a basket full of groceries involves the same math process regardless of whether the total is expressed in dollars, rubles, or yen.With this universal language, all of us, no matter what our unit of exchange, are likely to arrive at math results the same way.Math can help us to shop wisely, buy the right insurance, remodel a home within a budget, understand population growth, or even bet on the horse with the best chance of winning the race.
