Question: Does mathamatics help people with their everyday life

Cathal Cummins answered on 13 Nov 2013:

Yes it does. Mathematics is involved in everything. Just think about how much mathematics has gone into the computer you are using to type this question. It’s not just computers though. A lot of science would be unhelpful without the backbone of mathematics holding it together. In particular, modern medical treatments that involve microdevices such as pacemakers are designed using mathematics — literally life-saving mathematics!!
