Using Math at the Grocery Store

Counting and Adding at the Store

When you go shopping, you use math to count items and see how many you have altogether.

Real-World Examples

You might count apples for your family or add up the number of snacks you want.

Why It Matters

Math helps us make sure we buy enough for everyone and don’t forget anything!

Examples

  • Counting 4 oranges and 2 bananas to see you have 6 fruits.

  • Adding up snacks in your cart so you have enough for a party.
