This document discusses how math is used in various contexts such as food, fitness, arts, nature, music, and insurance. Some key ways math is used include calculating calories and costs in food, measuring body metrics like BMI and body fat percentage in fitness, using concepts like symmetry, perspective and the golden ratio in arts, observing patterns like fractals and symmetry in nature, applying principles of harmony and scales in music, and defining insurance terms like premiums and policies.
