When am I ever going to use math in my life? Why does nobody ever want to answer this question for me?

OP here, pic related is probably the only time I ever saw math being used in real life.
>>
>>8167814
You can use it if you want to.

It's not necessary, like you imply
>>
>>8167827
I'm not a weeb but I'm not a shitposting spammer either, care to explain how pic is related?
>>
>>8167814
Finish highschool first
>>
>>8167814
if you don't work in STEM you won't need to use too much math
>>
>>8167835
Datboi is an actual real life thing, and in that picture you can see a perfect [math]C_{5}[/math] symmetry element.

>>8167814
You don't use math because you are a pleb.

What is high school? Is it a school where you learn to get high? lol americans.....
>>
>>8167882
Non-Americans call it "secondary school" implying that math literacy is "secondary" which should embarrass you.
>>
>>8167882
Other countries call it high school as well. I see that Europoor education at work anon. (^:

>>8167814
Whenever you see fit. You can use math to calculate the probability of something happening, like something in sports. It can be used to think about something in a abstract way. Math is used in different field's such as physics or engineering.

You don't need math persé it's just one of the many things that you can use in life.

Drop out here. I had my own business for several years (pc repair and get this....fucking programming lol). I'm retired now and just do farming and shitposting. I never learned more than addition, subtraction, and multiplication. Literally nothing else was needed not even division; that I needed to do in my head.

Turns out, there are calculators fucking everywhere. I mean look at this shit.
>>
>>8167985
>Percentage calculator
Your opinion has been formally thrown into my mental trashbin, you fucking plebeian.
>>
>>8167994
The opinion that calculators are everywhere for anything?
>>
>>8167998
The opinion that you can't multiply or divide by one hundred mentally.
>>
>>8167985
Percentage calculator, my retarded fiancee's brother who plays rugby and bums around college (Britain) doing level one courses, can do percentages in his head.

Logic is philosophy m8
>>
>>8168055
Oh, so it multiplies or divides by 100, and THEN multiplies or divides by another number. I see how this is much more difficult to remember how to do yourself, you fucking plebeian dropout.
>>
>>8168071
>5489.645 is what percent of 8945.2268 = 61.36954515228167%

I don't have time to dick around with that, kid. Enjoy your worthless degree and Mickey D's manager job.
>>
>>8168086
(5489.645/8945.2268)*100
Wow, that was hard.

>Enjoy your worthless degree
I have no degree, and am certainly not a mathematician. I just have a fucking brain. Most of us do. You should try getting in touch with yours.
>>
>>8168086
Not that guy but by all accounts doing it on a calculator is much faster than loading a webpage a few times. Wait a sec though, are we being bamboozled? why would someone who doesn't know how to fucking divide be on /sci/?
>>
>>8167814
Basic arithmetic for just about every job. Algebra for any corporate job. Basic calc will open up some opportunities.
>>
>>8168100
>Wow, that was hard.

In your head, faster than using a calculator.
>>
>>8168107
I never said I do it in my fucking head, I said I don't need a bookmarked javascript app for it, I type it into a goddamn software calculator like an educated human bean.
>>
so guys...is math useful or?
>>
>>8168159
Depends how much the thought of being this guy bothers you: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYqXlRQrBN4

It was meant to be semi-ambiguous as to include both of them, since their whole family is thick. I am with her, because she is a normal person, it helps to balance out my autism.

The symmetry group is Z/5Z. I see your point.
