Question

What are your views in learning the concepts discussed in this course? Are there topics/concepts that are too easy or too difficult to understand (general MATHEMATICS in the modern world)

Answer 1

WHAT IS GENERAL MATHEMATICS?

General Mathematics aims to develop learners' understanding of concepts and techniques drawn from number and algebra, trigonometry and world geometry, sequences, finance, networks and decision mathematics and statistics, in order to solve applied problems

CONCEPT THAT ARE APPLIED IN GENERAL MATHEMATICS:

General math is nothing but the simple or basic concept related with mathematics. Generally, counting, addition, subtraction, multiplication and division are called the basic math operation. The other mathematical concept are built on top of the above 4 operations. These conepts along with different type of numbers, factors, lcm and gcf makes students ready for learning fraction.

Along with the concept of these operation, we need to understand the different properties of these operation as well as relation among these operations.

VIEW ON LEARNING CONCEPT OF GENERAL MATHEMATICS IN MODERN WORLD AND ARE THESE EASY/DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND:

Since it's very important to learn the concept of General Mathematics in modern world. As we require these General Mathematics concept in our daily life. As in today's world we can't expect that we can do some shopping, calculation of something without the knowledge of General Mathematics. If we see General Mathematics is applied everywhere in our surrounding. Fo eg.

1.Maths and Shopping

Maths surrounds you the minute you step through the doors of your favourite supermarket!

Indeed, the automatic doors and security scanner you pass through are composed of electronic systems that could never have been designed without maths.

2.The use of maths in cooking is almost inevitable, and it is often the famous rule of 3 that is applied, when you have to convert the proportions of a recipe for 6 people to a different number.

3.Another example would be if, while shopping, you realise that the store has a 30% off promotional discount, and that this reduction increases if you purchase 2 items. You understand, however, that a 10% off the first product and 20% off the second do not make a total discount of 30%!

All the above possible example you can solve only by the using the concept of General Mathematics.

As some found these concept easy and some found difficult to learn and understand. If one want to learn General Mathematics concept and gives his/her 100% in learning these concept.Then these General Mathematics are very easy to understand and learn.

Thanks and Happy learning.

***Hope I help you in needful manner.
