there are many different ways to solve math problems. first i look closely at the problem and instructions and dissect the question. then i follow the rules of please excuse my dear aunt sally. if the probem is unfamiliar to me i usually look in the book or in my notebook t follow the steps. afterwards most of the time i check my work over but if i really want to get done  i normally skip that part. and that is my method of solving problems.

There are many ways that we can use math in real life. Sometimes there are even cases where we dont even realise that we are doing math. For example when we are shopping to find the discount in prices to see if it is worth buying or able to afford it. Another way is tracking the sales of a buisness on a graph to see if there is a steady increase or decrease in the sales. Most jobs in the future will for sure use math as one of the top aspects, some useing it everyday. Math is all around us and will stay with us for the rest of our lives no matter what we decide to do.
