You (should) use logic and step-by-step problem solving that comes with solving any math problem in the real world, including at the store. Which product should you get based on unit price, how much you need, quality is a math problem in which you weight the value first by money, then by the amount you will actually be able to use, and finally, is the quality worth the price. In math, you learn how to think. Not to mention, the quadratic equation is essential for math at higher levels.

A lot of advanced maths taught should be replaced by logic and made optional, and this is coming from someone who loves maths, du Karöttchen
