Is math really important????

Math is a required subject in school even though many kids may not like it. Math is important in life because you never know what you may need it for. Just simply going to The store you need to know math, because whAt if the cashier doesn't give you the right amount of money, if you don't know how to count , wow! Your going home with the wrong amount. Say if you want a job bout the only spot there hiring for is a cashier. Yeah I know it will yell you the amount but what if the network is down and you have to figure out their change on your own? You may think now , like what do I need it for?, but trust me you do it will pay off in the long run.
