Mathematics is a practical use of the subject. It is said in the recognition of the way that the
subject makes a man reliable or effective. Mathematics makes our lives true, and yet we
suspect certain misunderstandings. This subject seems to be the support of all things
considered, without which the multiverse could never shift an inch. Perhaps this idea is not
necessarily true every day in real life, but the skills you will gather are really useful in
recognizing nearly every trend in sequences and series. So, mathematics is not much of
understanding part but there is a lot of application part and brainstorming that has improved
my critical thinking ability and helped me think differently in many situations. Therefore,
mathematics teaches you to enhances the ability to imagine relative locations and interactions
between objects and concepts. Your understanding of plots, data tables and images will be
improved greatly.

Mathematics makes life orderly. Certain qualities that is most useful are nurtured by
mathematics which are capacity of logic, imagination, analytical or abstract thought, logical
thinking, problem-solving, and even good judgment. It is axiomatic proof-of-knowledge scheme
(true statements) of abstract notions is most strong, since most of the things we value are
abstractions. The most widely used abstractions are numbers. They describe the relationship
between quantity and quantity. It refers to the quantification of the quantities and the
relationship between the measurements in terms of divisibility. Mathematics is not only
connected to numbers. Width, time, height, rate, finance, permutation and combination of
probabilities. And it will allow a person to look at his day as well as in the present world.

In the story of Blind Men and the Elephant, it could be related in the study of mathematics since,
if you look at the problem from only one side or have not enough data for making any
calculations, then you can't make any reason and true assumptions and prove them like “how
do we know if it a fan? Or “how do we know that this is a rope?” This assumption can be linked
in notion of truth where the claims can be either true or false. This story proves that, math is not
just about numbers, but also an object or concepts relies on it. It allows to find a proof and to
think to be determine if the argument is valid or invalid. The concept of the story is that people
may assert absolute truth from the merit of their minimal subjective knowledge, while they
overlook the limited, subjective experience of others, which may be similarly valid. In
mathematics, it is precise in a sense that mathematical claims are clear and unambiguous. It is
clear what is known and what is not known. Therefore, notion of truth considered as a lifeblood
of mathematics that drives proving and problem solving.
