Math in my life

  We use math everyday and don't even know it. People use math at stores, to pay their bills, and they
make money every time they work. I use math when I am at school and when I go to Safeway. My
mom just paid $20 for the materials that I have used and will use in workshop. She pays for me to be
 in band, dance, and soccer so she has to know how much the prices should be. She also pays a lot of
attention to the prices at stores as the cashier rings through the items. But before we get up to the
cashier she already has the estimated price in her head so that if the cashier does something wrong she can correct them and pay the actual price. She has caught many mistakes.
For me math is important so that I know how to pay my bills, taxes, rent, gas etc.. But also so that I know how to spend money wisely and can have a good career.
