Practical Applications

Math in the Grocery Store

Using Math When Shopping

Math helps us in the grocery store every time we shop! We count items, compare prices, and make sure we have enough money.

Counting and Adding

Count how many apples you put in your bag or add up how many items you have in your cart.

Comparing and Subtracting

Compare which fruit has more or fewer, or subtract items you put back on the shelf.

Real-Life Shopping

Parents use math to budget money and kids can help by counting and sorting groceries.

Examples

  • Counting 6 oranges before putting them in the cart.

  • Adding up the cans of soup to see how many you’re buying altogether.
