Mathematics(AKA Math or Maths) is the study of a few topics which include quantity, structure, space and change. Unlike what most people think, mathematics is not the study of numbers, else it will be called numerology.
Mathematics is very important in many fields as well as in daily life. Examples of fields that are closely related to mathematics are natural sciences(biology, chemistry, physics and astronomy), engineering, medicine, finance, social sciences and statistics. Without mathematics, these fields would not exist and the world as we know of today would not exist as well. Just imagine a world full of chaos because mathematics does not exist to bring order to chaos. You can also imagine a world where after millenia of human evolution, humans are still living prehistorical lives as cavemen just because we lack the knowledge of science and mathematics to bring forth the birth of technology.
