Math in Shopping

Making Smart Purchases

Math helps you make good decisions when shopping. You use addition and subtraction to check prices, calculate discounts, and figure out if you have enough money.

  • Budgeting:

    • Add up the cost of items.
    • Make sure you don't spend more than you have.

  • Finding Deals:

    • Calculate sale prices (like “20% off”).
    • Compare prices to get the best value.

Real-World Impact

Good math skills mean you can shop wisely and save money for things you really want.

Examples

  • Adding up the total price of items in your cart before checkout.

  • Working out how much you save if a shirt is 30% off.
