And Mathematics is not just numbers, it is about patterns, too! So jobs like fashion and interior design benefit from math skills. Mathematics is also useful in everyday life:
1.Investing money (interest rates, profits, etc)
2.Estimating costs
3.Shopping (is it really a bargain?)
4.Understanding Computers
5.Designing rooms and gardens
6.Planning trips
7.Mathematics also improves our mental ability as it teaches us logical ways of thinking.
And anyway, it is just plain fun: what other subject is about solving puzzles?
