Science wouldn't be the same without math. When doing experiments, pretty much the whole thing depends on math. For example, in science a few weeks ago, we were using mirrors at different distances to show how we appear to be smaller when you are further away. We used meter sticks. We had one person stand 2 meters, then 4, then 6 away from the mirror. One of us recorded the height from the floor to the line drawn horizontally down the middle of the mirror and someone held the mirror and moved it around so the line drawn appeared to be lined up with our toes. One of us recorded.
When we got back inside (we did the experiment outside; it was SO HOT!), we wrote down our measurements and then turned them into a decimal, then a ratio. The whole thing was fairly simple, but I was in bad shape that day,
