Math helps us see the future by finding patterns in things that happen over and over. Imagine you have a toy car that moves forward every time you press a button, if you press it 10 times, you can guess it will go forward 10 times. Math works like this with bigger things too, like weather or how much money people spend.
Examples
- If you know how many days it rained last month, you can guess how much it might rain this month.
- If your friend walks to school in 10 minutes every day, they’ll walk there in 10 minutes tomorrow.
