Mathematics as we all know came to this world because of those people who wanted to name things by using units of measurement such as meters, pounds and even grams. Math is branch of science that deals with numbers and sometimes variables or letters. It is useful especially in branches of science like chemistry and physics. Geometry is just one of the subjects under math. More importantly, math is a necessity in our everyday life. Without knowing how to do simple arithmetic (addition, subtraction, multiplication and division), it will be easy for other people to trick you especially when you are in the market or in places of business.
Mathematics is considered one of the most difficult subjects in elementary until you go up to college. There are lots of people who gradually fail and eventually take a “back subject” as what we call it in U.P. According to these people, math just squeezes everything that’s in your mind. You need to memorize so many formulas and do so many computations that for us are just hassle. Sometimes it takes a lot of time to do computations and to come up with an answer. Thus, it is mind boggling. And this subject is the student’s worst enemy. But have we, students, ever thought of the advantages of MATH? Well actually, Math is very important especially in our business and trade societies.
For me, the business men are considered to be the people who are very intelligent when it comes to Math. Obviously because when you say business, it means money. And when we say money, we need to be smart or wise in the budget of our expenses. If the business men do not know how to budget, then it will cause the bankruptcy of the corporation. In a business, money comes in and out. The money that’s not being placed into good hands has a very high probability that it will be lost. In tagalong, we say this quote, “Pera na nagging bato pa”. That’s what most importantly makes up a business for the business men to apply their knowledge in Mathematics.
Not only is Math important for business men but also for ordinary people. Like the business men I have mentioned earlier, ordinary people apply their knowledge in Mathematics and use it in their everyday life. For example, you can apply math in the market. You buy something and pay the vendor but you were given the wrong amount. If you do not know how to count your change, then probably the vendor would be pretty much happy because of his extra credit. Advantageous to the vendor’s part, isn’t it? But if you immediately know what is wrong with your change, then you can immediately tell the vendor the mistake you have made.
Math is really a hassle for students like me because of that mind boggling experience when you are taking the test in Math. But these are just stages in our life as students for us to learn how to do computations to be used as entrepreneurs of the future. I know there will be so many students who would say negative things about this post, but read it properly and you’ll know that math, though it is a very difficult subject, has lots of benefits in our lives. And now, Math really is a NECESSITY in our lives.
