  3. My friend Jim wanted to meet me at the mall at 4pm. If he left his house at 3:07pm traveling an average speed of 23.5 mph, how much time do I have to do my hair and still beat him to the Cinnabon? Solve for x.

  10. I deal with very long decimals every day. Math is something everyone definitely needs to know, even if it's only to balance your check book.

  12. I don't use math. Many people don't use it (besides the basics)

    But! teaching math at schools is awesome, make you exercise your brain.
