''Math For The Real World'' is a 1997 EdutainmentGame from Creator/DavidsonAndAssociates, best known for the ''VideoGame/MathBlaster'' series. As the title implies, the game is meant to answer the age-old question of ''"Why learn math when we'll never use it in real life?"'', which is done in a way that would entice kids to play it.

A local garage band has made it big when they are offered a ten city tour, with the opportunity to make and star in a music video. However, they have to manage their own funds and make enough money on the tour to afford a complete music video.
