Mathematics is the abstract science of number, quantity, and space, which can be studied on its own or applied to other fields like physics and engineering. Math is important because it is used in everyday life to solve real-world problems, and having stronger math skills opens up more opportunities. Elementary math covers topics like patterns, counting, and basic operations. Middle school math expands on these concepts and introduces pre-algebra topics, geometry, fractions, and more. High school math delves deeper into algebra, geometry, trigonometry, pre-calculus, calculus, and other advanced topics.
2. Mathematics
• the abstract science of number, quantity, and space. Mathematics may be
studied in its own right ( pure mathematics ), or as it is applied to other
disciplines such as physics and engineering ( applied mathematics ).
3. Why is math important?
• the more you know, the more options you have available
• We need it in our everyday lives
• Solve real life problems
• All math is the same
4. Examples of how math is used?
• Find the area of a house
• Measure ingredients
• Cooking
• Temperature
• Building a home
