We use algebra when comparing the prices of phone networks or cars and working out how long it could take to get to a certain location. Also for how much paint you would need to decorate a certain area and how many plants can be planted onto a certain area. Below is an example of how algebra can be used when seeing the amount of items you could buy for a certain amount of money: If you go to the grocery store and have ten dollars to spend on five two dollar candy bars. This gives us the equation 2x = 10 where x is the number of candy bars you can buy with ten dollars. Many people don't realize that this sort of calculation is Algebra, they just sub-contiously do it! ;D
