Everyday Problem Solving

You use math all the time at home—cooking, planning, or even playing games. Math helps you follow recipes, divide things equally, and keep track of time.

• Cooking:

  • Measure ingredients using fractions.
  • Double or halve a recipe.

• Sharing:

  • Split pizza or snacks fairly.
  • Divide chores by time or number.

Why It Helps

Math makes home life smoother and helps everyone share and cooperate.
