    Mathematics principles are used universally in many everyday activities from buying a car to following a recipe to decorating a home. While people have been using math concepts for thousands of years across different countries and continents, math is universal because humans discovered rather than invented mathematical concepts. The language of mathematics, numbers, transcends spoken languages and allows people to be well-versed in performing everyday tasks and making important decisions involving shopping, insurance, budgets, population growth, and more.

    MATHEMATICS

    INTRODOCTION

    When you buy a car, follow a recipe, or decorate your home, you're using math principles.
    People have been using these same principles for thousands of years, across countries and
    continents. Whether you're sailing a boat off the coast of Japan or building a house in Peru,
    you're using math to get things done.

    How can math be so universal? First, human beings didn't invent


    math concepts; we discovered them. Also, the language of math is
    numbers, not English or German or Russian. If we are well versed
    in this language of numbers, it can help us make important
    decisions and perform everyday tasks. Math can help us to shop
    wisely, buy the right insurance, remodel a home within a budget, understand population growth,
    or even bet on the horse with the best chance of winning the race.
