What is CBSE Class 11 Numerical Applications Syllabus [Download Important Questions]

Numerical analysis is a field of mathematics that analyses and develops algorithms for obtaining numerical solutions to problems containing continuous variables. Numerical applications is one of the chapters in CBSE Class 11 Applied Mathematics Syllabus. 

Numerical applications topic holds a weightage of 09 marks out of 80 marks in the theory exam. This post takes you through the complete details regarding CBSE Class 11 Numerical applications.

What is CBSE Class 11 Applied Maths Numerical Applications?

In mathematics, quantification is the act of counting and measuring observations into quantities. Quantification is an integral part of economics and psychology. Both disciplines gather data, In economics, data is gathered by observation and in psychology by experimentation and both uses statistical techniques such as regression analysis to draw conclusions from it.

Whereas Numerical applications is the study of algorithms that use an approximation method for the problems of mathematical analysis. Numerical analysis naturally finds application in life sciences, social sciences, medicine, business, and even the arts have adopted its elements.

CBSE Class 11 Applied Mathematics covers the basics of numerical applications consisting of averages, time & work, time, speed & distance, mensuration, average problems, etc.
