Is math relevent to reality?

He is an Enstein quote:
As far as the laws of mathematics refer to reality, they are not certain, as far as they are certain, they do not refer to reality.

So what do you think?

Math is as relevant as the mathematicians make it. It is a human activity and there are some humans who want to do relevant math and others who want to do artistic math. Relevance is not a natural characteristic of an academic discipline, but of the studies people us the discipline for.

Because physics is involved in real life.

I believe the world is related to maths indeed. Everything, or almost everything refers to reality. The real world and every thing we touch has a mathematical explanation.

Learning math is learning to think. Many students (and their parents) believe that doing math requires some inherent skill and that they are missing that skill. In my experience this is incorrect. Anyone can learn to do math. Math requires both concrete and abstract thinking skills as well as logic.
