Budgeting and Financial Literacy

Math in Money Matters

Quantitative reasoning skills are essential for managing money. Budgeting means planning how to spend and save, while financial literacy helps you understand things like interest and discounts.

Skills in Action

  • Adding up expenses and comparing them to income.
  • Calculating sales tax and tips.
  • Figuring out percentage discounts during shopping.

Real-World Benefits

These math skills help you make smart money decisions, avoid overspending, and reach your savings goals.

Examples

  • You have $50 and want to buy snacks for a party. Adding up prices helps you stay within budget.

  • A $40 shirt is 25% off. Calculating \( 0.25 \times 40 = 10 \), you save $10, so the shirt costs $30.
