MATHEMATICS IN EVERYDAY LIFE

                         

Mathematics is the study of Numbers, quantities, patterns and Shapes. It is the science that deals with Logic because every calculations and operations that we perform in Mathematics has some logic behind it. Even most of the formulas that we use in Mathematics has some logic. So it is study of logic. 

Even Most of the students take Maths as Boring subject but if we study Maths by understanding logic of every steps, then it doesn’t seems to be boring subject. 

     USE OF MATHEMATICS IN EVERYDAY LIFE:-

1.) BANKS:-   Maths is very important in Banking. It is used for keeping the record of money in bank. If person knows maths, then person will be calculate that how much interest he/she get by investing money in bank . With help of Maths, person becomes able that where he/ she invests his money so that he/she get more Profit for future savings. 

2.) GROCERY:-   Grocery stores are the best examples where maths in used  everday.  If person has better understanding in Maths, then person will able to understand that how much money he/she has to pay to grocery store for his/her shopping. Person can itself check the bill before paying it. 

We should involve our children during shopping. When we will do this , the concept of Measurements, Addition , subtraction , Multiplication and division will developed in child in more appropriate way as he/ she will do this by taking more interest in it. 

3.) PETROL PUMPS:-  Maths is also used at petrol pump stations. Screen of Machines used at petrol pumps has digital meter on which Numbers are there. 

We can tell our children for explaining concept of Measurements that If 1 litre petrol cost is Rs. 80 then how  much quantity of petrol we get in Rs. 240? 

4.) TRIGONOMETRY:-  Trigonometry has very importance in Mathematics. Most of the students feel it boring. But it’s applications are Engineering field. It is used for Measuring heights and distances of buildings. So it has great importance in every day life. 

5.) Weather forecast:-  Weather forecast departments use the concept of Probability and tell us in advance before 3-4 days, that hows the weather on next day. It use Probability. It can be correct or sometimes incorrect. 

6.) Agriculture:-    Farmers use math when applying chemicals and fertilizers to the soil. They need to measure how fertile the soil is, how much fertilizer is required for it  and how much it will cost. So Maths is used in agriculture field . 

Hence  Mathematics is used in every field of Life whether it’s some portion is used but it is used in every field, even in most of the subjects like PHYSICS, CHEMISTRY. Even in History there are some important historical dates which are of the form of numbers. So Mathematics is used in SSt field also. 

Hence we can say that It is used in our everyday life.
