Mathematics is praised by many because of the fact it is an exact science. There commonly is always one answer and once you understand how to get to this answer you are sorted. But there’s your real problem. Getting to that answer.
There tend to be several steps in order to achieve a correct answer and if some where through the steps the tiniest mistake is made your answer could end up miles off correct, regardless of doing almost all your working out perfectly.

This is where the fundamentals are important. By learning the most simple of the mathematical principals we are able to practice these, build on these, and then develop these. Even the most complex equations are made up of a variety of fundamental principles that support one another in an effort to discover the answer.
Complex mathematics should not be slated for its abundance in real life situations but praised as it allows us to work with our fundamentals, practice them and grow in our own understanding.
