Math Is. . . .

Math can be anything from numbers to graphs. Math deals with almost anything in your life. For example, when you go to a gas station, and it says 3.90 for 1 gallon of gas, and you're getting 8 gallons, you would do 3.90 x 8= $31.20. Another example that we talked about in class is when you're at a restaurant and you need to figure out how much to tip the waiter. This is using percents to solve a problem. In math class this year, we learned about percents, fractions, decimals, order of operations, exponents, GCF and LCM, population and sample, scientific notation, and many other topics. As you can see, math can be found anywhere, at anytime.
# $ % < > ? + = ( ) * -
