Answer 1

Answer:

Pure math has concepts which are technical and advanced to be used especially in industry, whereas math literacy has simple basic concepts that any general student can use in daily life to survive.

Explanation:

Schools tend to focus on matric pass rates and “university passes”. Yet pupils and their parents should remember that a so-called “university pass” does not necessarily equate to earning a prized spot at a university. Competition is fierce. There are always more applicants than places.

Some pupils may be convinced that it is their destiny to be a poet or movie star. They may argue that they do not need matric, let alone a pass that includes mathematics. This is all very well but why limit your options? Life is long. Desires may change as you mature. At 15, it is difficult to commit to a single path. By choosing mathematics pupils are hedging their bets and increasing their life options.
