We just finished an exam,about maths.Maybe it called operational research.I find it a little hard for me even though i studied it for a week.
I have to say my maths is not very good.I am the kind of person that prefer literary to maths.
Do you like Maths?Are you good at it?
and do you think maths is very important to our life???

I am not good at math at all. I have been out of high school for many years now. But even when I was in school I just passed by the skin of my teeth. I do think math is important. Think about it. In everyday life math is involved. When you go to the grocery store when they ring up your purchases you have to know math to make sure that you are being charged the right price. Math is involved in keeping a checking account and more things math is involved. Yes, math is important to know.

I just found a similar person like me!Great!yes,maths do a lot in our life.without it,we may not know the price of goods we need and don't know how to pay for it.But i think it is enough to know on this level.much deeper math,like calculus,do you think it is necessary to learn?or is it only science's work?

Math is very important to our everyday life. We use math to cook, and to shop and to pay bills. We use math to decide if we need gasoline. We use math to make sure our pay check is correct and to balance or reconcile our bank balances. I am good enough with math. I enjoy it, but probably not so much when I was in school. I use math to make sure that I am meeting my MyLot payout.

Long time no see^^
sounds math is really necessary in our life,especially in our financial things.But calculus,we use it not often in our daily life.So i often doubt whether it is necessary to learn it.You know,calculus was a big headache to me^^
And how to use math to cook?I'm a little confused~~?

Math is in your weights, measures and temperatures of your ingredients. Either Cups, or ounces, or liters or grams. Degrees Farenheit, Degrees Celsius
