What's the highest level of Math you use regularly?

Just curious. Extra points if you can add your position or industry to explain why.
I'm just wondering how many people in the population actually use what they are being taught in school.

Trig and geometry daily.

Multiplication and division, so elementary. Had to take calculus though

Business math. I’m not sure what level that was. Algebra and that stuff was worthless

I use my calculator app or AI to solve my math problems. I have come across only a handful examples of when I NEEDED math outside of basic arithmetic.

Basic math. Addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, percentages etc..

I use damn near everything I was taught in school.
I work for a company that makes fuel cell bladders for military aircraft.

I constantly use all sorts of math to solve shop problems.
I've got a 16 year old kid that helps me sometimes. I'm trying to teach him how to use a tape measure.
He's in the 11th grade. It's sad.
If he learns that, I'll start teaching him to convert fractions to decimals.
He's a great kid though and doesn't mind working.
He just never had a Dad around to make sure he was learning the things that he will need later.

Algebra II and Geometry. I teach both subjects.

I use Mathcad Prime for math…wish I had that back in college.

Linear algebra often, every now and then differential equations , mostly just Laplace transforms. Matlab helps.

4th grade. And if that's a clue, 5th grade is going to really test my chops.

Counting aloud on my fingers or while pointing to days on a calendar. I don’t trust head-arithmetic or even date-calculation sites and apps.

I will use a fancy interest calculator or brave the sum function in Excel.
I think that’s about the sum of it. My dad is a PhD polymer chemist. Skips a generation, I hear. He’s a step function ahead of me in maths.

I stumbled upon a methlab in LaPlace once. Those guys knew enough algebra to do basic chemistry.

The math is fairly basic but we do some really in-depth statistical analysis. I work in energy finance and we have monstrous data sets we need to sift through so we have some really good analysts that crank them out.

I teach high school math.
Not much above algebra 2 level.
