Math is...

Math is everything! You use math in your life daily. Sometimes you don't realize that you are using it but you are. You use math when your shopping. You have to figure out how much a item is if it is on sale for a certain percent off. Also you have to figure out the tax amount of the item your purchasing. People use math while buying a car. When you need a loan for car you have to know the interest rate and see how much you will be paying per month. There is also interest when you have money in your bank account. While your money just sits there your making more money off of it. When you go out to dinner and you give the waitress a tip you have to decide what percent of the bill you are going to give. You use percents a lot in your daily life without noticing. Many jobs use math weather your a carpenter or a accountant.
