The document explores the significance of mathematics as a universal language for problem-solving, used in various fields and everyday life. It highlights the historical foundations of math and its applications, including a real-life story of Jerry Selbee who utilized math to win the lottery. The text emphasizes that mathematics not only aids in academic pursuits but is essential for making informed decisions in personal and professional contexts.

1. Life is a math equation. In order to
gain the most, you have to know
how to convert negatives into
positives.

2. Introduction..

3. So what is Maths?
According to the Oxford learners dictionary
mathematics is “the study of numbers and
shapes”. The mathematician Benjamin
Peirce called mathematics "the science
that draws necessary conclusions".
Albert Einstein, on the other hand,
stated that "as far as the laws of
mathematics refer to reality, they are
not certain; and as far as they are
certain, they do not refer to reality."

4. Archimedes is known as the Father of Mathematics.
Mathematics is one of the ancient sciences developed in time
immemorial. Since the beginning of recorded history,
mathematical discovery has been at the forefront of every
civilized society, and math has been used by even the most
primitive and earliest cultures.
It is the universal language that helps us describe and
understand the relationships between different elements in
the world. From basic arithmetic to advanced calculus, math
provides tools for solving problems, making predictions, and
exploring the underlying order in the universe. It's not just
about numbers; it's a way of thinking and a powerful tool for
reasoning and problem-solving.
The Pythagoras theorem, logarithms ,chaos theory, Maxwell's
equations which constitute fundamental laws of physics,
Euler’s identity and so on are some of the other many
equations and formulas based on maths which are known by

5. Mathematics is a vast and diverse field, and it can be broadly
categorized into various branches. Here are some major fields of
mathematics:
Arithmetic Algebra Geometry Trigonometry Calculus
Statistics
and
Probability
Logic
Applied
Mathematics
Discrete
Mathematics
Topology

8. ● 1)There will be 5 questions which each qn will be in each circle
● 2) so basically in each circle there will be qns which includes addition
subtraction multiplication division and all those
● 3) so the students should add all the tough numbers and keep it in the mind
● 4) for example when they add all the numbers they might be getting 72
● 5) And our qn will be when we add which number to this unknown number we
get a sum of 90
● 6) and hence the student who gets the answer first as 18 will be the winner
● 7) like this 3 qns will be there

9. Sample:
TOTAL : 72
(80/40), (1X0), (17-14),
(2.75+1.25),(33.5-7.5)
ANSWER: 72 – 35 = 37

10. 1:
TOTAL : 78
(72/8), (23.7+ 3.3),
(23.3-0.3),(2X9)
ANSWER : 78 – 77 = 1

11. 2:
TOTAL : 99.6
(28/7) , (0.1 + 3.8) ,
(9.7- 2.5) , (3X9)
ANSWER : 99.6 – 42.1 = 57.5

13. 3:
TOTAL: 60
(101.7 – 72.3) (3.6+
5.2), (2.7X1), (64/8),
(3.7 – 0.9)
ANSWER : 60 – 51.7 = 8.3

14. While many people think of math as a school subject, math is extremely useful in
the real world as well. First and foremost, Mathematics is very old. Nowadays, we
consider it an interdisciplinary language. Biologists, linguists, and sociologists alike
use math in their work. It is reflected in our everyday lives. For instance, we often
need it to calculate how much our groceries cost and managing expenses. Simply
put, mathematics is a universal instrument for problem-solving. Cooking involves
measurements, and mathematics helps us understand the science behind cooking.
Many students say,” I hate mathematics and that Math is a useless subject, but it is
wrong as without it your life becomes tough to survive. Math has its applications in
every field. One cannot imagine a world without Math. We are all familiar with the
prodigious father of Mathematics: ‘Archimedes’. The origins of mathematical
thought lie in the concepts of number, patterns in nature, magnitude, and form. An
issue such as a student has to find the hypotenuse of a right triangle with angle 20°
and opposite side 5 feet is not immediately relevant to real life, whereas a word
problem asking how much rope is needed to secure a tent evidently relates to real
life. Math is useful in a variety of everyday and specialized contexts. In addition to
everyday math, mathematics is used in physics, engineering, and data analysis

15. Students can’t avoid math. Most take it every day. However, even in
history and English classes they may need to know a little math. Whether
buying coffee or a car, basic principles of math are in play. Purchasing
decisions require some understanding of budgets and the cost and
affordability of items from groceries to houses. Moreover, Students'
career options will be limited if they do not have a solid foundation in
math. Musical rhythm often follows complex mathematical series, and
math can help students learn the basic rhythms of dances used in ballet
and theatre performances. In a nutshell, mathematics has been an
effective guide for centuries and will abide among those math lovers.

16. Mathematics plays a crucial role in modern technology,
influencing various aspects such as:
Cryptography:
Computer
Science:
Data
Analysis
Communication
Systems
Optimization
Simulation and
Modeling:
Robotics
Engineering

17. "Merry and sarge go large" A 2022 release, this film is the story of
Jerry Selbee, a retiree, who discovers a loophole in the
Massachusetts lottery, goes on a winning spree with his wife,
Marge, and they use the money to restore their hometown.

18. YES this is based on a real life story! "Retired
couple used math to crack lottery code and win
$26 million"
Jerry Selbee figured out how to legally win lotteries in Michigan a few years ago. How? It
was all about the roll down.
What is a roll down? In Michigan's WinFaII lottery, if there was no grand prize winner
that matched all six numbers from a field of 49 on aticket and a jackpot limit was
reached. Then instead of letting the jackpot grow, the lottery "rolled down" to give the
next tier of players a chance to win. Instead of having to match all the numbers on a
ticket, a winner would only need to match five, four or even three numbers to be a
winner.

19. Any mathematician will tell you that doing so increases the odds of winning. The
retired Selbee had also earned a mathematics degree from Western Michigan
University
Selbee knew that as the odds of winning increased, the ease of calculating a match
also increased. He used his math skills to calculate those odds. He was able to figure
out that if he purchased a certain number of tickets, there was a high probability that
he would hit a match. And finally after nine years, the Selbees had grossed over $27
million in winning tickets - for a net profit of $7.75 million before taxes.

24. ANSWER AND EXPLANATION
The answer is the sequence:
2,4,7,8
From the 2nd
combo, we get 50% extra milk, thus fulfilling our
requirement. From the 7th
combo, we get 1 kg chicken free,
again fulfilling our requirements. From the 8th
combo we get 1
kg tomato.
Summing up, we get all our products, while staying in the
budget
ie- 700+200+640+400=Rs 1940
