Mathematics is a computational science. In other words, it refers to the number system and its various operations. Mathematical literacy as well as wise use of mathematical operations is needed for every citizen in order to adjust better in the society.

• Mathematical thinking requires a lot more apart from arithmetic operations, it helps in identifying and reasoning problems.

Social Sciences constitute a broad field of knowledge and deal with human beings in relation to their social behavior. Social Sciences study the concepts or issues like culture, tradition, lifestyles, places, and environment, power and authority, governance, economy, civic sense, etc. which have social implications

• Mathematics is required in order to understand social science-related issues or concepts of budget, price list, money, expenditure, income, taxes, interest, saving, stocks, time, temperature, latitude, longitude, altitude, voting process, etc.
• Economics employs mathematical principles and languages to interpret social phenomena. The share market operations, country’s revenue statement, budget analysis, etc. use Mathematics.
• Similarly, examples of social science issues can be considered while learning mathematics. For example, for learning mathematical concepts of average and percentage, examples of temperature, rainfall, etc. can be cited; for learning mathematical concepts of time and distance, the examples of latitude, longitude, altitude, etc. can be cited; and so on.
• The use of mathematics is required ultimately for achieving social well-being.

Thus, it is concluded that the Study of Social Science may require mathematical thinking.
