    Substantial aspects of numeracy also include number sense, operation sense, computation, measurement, geometry, probability and statistics. [citation needed] A numerically literate person can manage and respond to the mathematical demands of life. [2] [3] By contrast, innumeracy (the lack of numeracy) can have a negative impact. Numeracy has an ...

    [43] The four color theorem and optimal sphere packing were two major problems of discrete mathematics solved in the second half of the 20th century. [ 44 ] The P versus NP problem , which remains open to this day, is also important for discrete mathematics, since its solution would potentially impact a large number of computationally difficult ...

    2014: National Numeracy-commissioned research by Pro Bono Economics found that over the course of a year, the cost of low levels of numeracy is estimated to be around £20.2 billion which is roughly 1.3 per cent of GDP to the total UK economy. This cost is distributed between individuals (£8.8 billion), employers (£3.2 billion) and government ...
