Math and science, are usually seen as two different types of concepts, each with a unique "style". In science, you mainly learn about the science in the world you live in. Whether it be: geography, chemistry, biology, etc. In math, however, you can begin to make the connections between the two. In math there are a variety of topics; decimals, fractions, graphs, equations, multiplication, addition, subtraction, and division. The number that are often used to measure something scientific, are normally measure to scale, which means it is the exact size, or length. If the object is not to scale, then it means that it is not the direct calculation. Speaking of measuring, we can talk about converting. Scientists use an great amount of measuring tools to measure certain object. If they use centimeters, and they want to convert to feet, then they use the math to convert the size.
Say, if you had 12 centimeters, and you wanted to convert it to feet, it would be approximately 1 foot. They can use this method of converting to use greater measurements. In other fields of science, such as biology, the study of living things, we can use the time scale, to estimate about how many years an animal has survived for.
