i think you need math practically in all fields...
when you work, whatever career it may be, you need to ensure the calculation of your time sheets are accurate for your salary..
when you buy something, you need math to figure if the cost benefit you, for bargain, percentage wise, discount and all...
when you are in medical field, you should be accurate on the medicine distributions, how many cc, mm, ml you are giving for the patients cause their condition rely on your accuracy..
when you are in political arena, you should be aware of budgets, that required math and formula as well..
when operating a business, you need to know all the numbers either you are making profit or loss in any transaction you deal with..
among other things, when you are navigating on boat, flying an airplane, designing house, painting an art, chemist, investing, driving, you need to know math..
i think math requires to know from the heart, and to know how to apply it to your concept got something to do with knowledge and so does in our daily living as well...

Knowledge and use of basic mathematics have always been an inherent and integral part of individual and group life. Refinements of the basic ideas are visible in ancient mathematical texts originating in ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia, Ancient India, and Ancient China with increased rigour later introduced by the ancient Greeks. From this point on, the development continued in short bursts until the Renaissance period of the 16th century where mathematical innovations interacted with new scientific discoveries leading to an acceleration in understanding that continues to the present day.[3]
Today, mathematics is used throughout the world in many fields, including science, engineering, medicine and economics. The application of mathematics to such fields, often dubbed applied mathematics, inspires and makes use of new mathematical discoveries and has sometimes led to the development of entirely new disciplines. Mathematicians also engage in pure mathematics for its own sake without having any practical application in mind, although applications for what begins as pure mathematics are often discovered later
Mathematics arises wherever there are difficult problems that involve quantity, structure, space, or change. At first these were found in commerce, land measurement and later astronomy; nowadays, all sciences suggest problems studied by mathematicians, and many problems arise within mathematics itself. Newton was one of the infinitesimal calculus inventors, Feynman invented the Feynman path integral using a combination of reasoning and physical insight, and today's string theory also inspires new mathematics. Some mathematics is only relevant in the area that inspired it, and is applied to solve further problems in that area. But often mathematics inspired by one area proves useful in many areas, and joins the general stock of mathematical concepts. The remarkable fact that even the "purest" mathematics often turns out to have practical applications is what Eugene Wigner has called "the unreasonable effectiveness of mathematics."
Many mathematicians talk about the elegance of mathematics, its intrinsic aesthetics and inner beauty. Simplicity and generality are valued. There is beauty also in a clever proof, such as Euclid's proof that there are infinitely many prime numbers, and in a numerical method that speeds calculation, such as the fast Fourier transform. G. H. Hardy in A Mathematician's Apology expressed the belief that these aesthetic considerations are, in themselves, sufficient to justify the study of pure mathematics
Applied mathematics considers the use of abstract mathematical tools in solving concrete problems in the sciences, business, and other areas. An important field in applied mathematics is statistics, which uses probability theory as a tool and allows the description, analysis, and prediction of phenomena where chance plays a role. Most experiments, surveys and observational studies require the informed use of statistics. (Many statisticians, however, do not consider themselves to be mathematicians, but rather part of an allied group.) Numerical analysis investigates computational methods for efficiently solving a broad range of mathematical problems that are typically too large for human numerical capacity; it includes the study of rounding errors or other sources of error in computation.

by and or with math evrything will be formulated to a worry-free knowledge. when I say, upload that to my turtle, it truly is math.even as some smart human being explains why we are on a spinning orbin area amid a GINOURMOUS quantity of different stuff and issues, (and dome thikngs that are literally not issues) it truly is math. foundation of ways you typed that query is rooted in math. I understand the question, as a Saillor i take advantage of math each and every of the time. it really is a concious math, yet we surely use math for each little thing and for no longer something. with out the 0 there won't be able to be the a million, that math became Islamic, took us Westerners like 2000 years to really have a theory of 0. bypass make sure that one out........

Eh, I'd say almost everyone uses a computer or PDA to do all that stuff now anyway ;-)
Doctors don't figure out how much of the med to give out, the Rx company tells him. Architects use ICAD to design their houses. Chemists look at books to figure out everything.
It's helpful to know it, because it shortens the time it takes to figure stuff out, but it's better to know how to find that information quickly when you need it. Most people don't need to know high mathematics all the time. It's fun to figure some of it out, and it helps my sudoku score online....
Math would be easy if schools didn't spend all their time telling you how hard it is to legitimize taking twelve years to teach it all.

Money, Banking, Paying bills, buying groceries. If you
want to calculate the distance between earth & the moon. Say
your planning a trip, you would not want to run out of gas,
especially going to the moon.

many things require math, or are useful with mathmatics
pool is better learned through geometry and angles, construction workers use measurements, fractions, and geometry to build houses. It helps to know basic math to keep your checking account balanced, as well as your finances. They use specific formula's to make things like plastic. My husband has to make his own formula's. Many people require you to know college level geometry and algebra to aquire a job. My husband was required to know this for where he works. He was tested on what he knew before he could become an employee where he worked. Because they required this as part of his job skills.

example when you are on your way to an important place and you need to know how lon it will take for you to get ther so you can say when youlll be arriving and possibly be picked up. even if you have no job it is important

ones you get done doing adding, subtracting, dividing and multiplying. And may be some others stuff but after you get done with that stuff you don't need to go on in math. unless you want to be a rocket sceitists
