We can use mathematics to successfully model real world processes. Is this because we create mathematics to mirror the world or because the world is intrinsically mathematical?

Mathematics is defined as the organization of reason and ideas. In the prompt, the expression “real world” incorporates the universe rather than the physical world. Due to this, “real world processes” refers to all of the processes in the universe, not solely processes that are commonplace in the physical realm. Mathematics assists in organizing the logic behind these real-world processes and can be employed to better our understanding of these processes. Mathematics are able to be successful in modeling real world processes because the world is intrinsically mathematical.

Before the prompt can be answered, it is necessary to explore how applicable these mathematical concepts are in real life situations. To what extent can knowledge that is not directly pertinent to real life processes be utilized to further relevant knowledge? The question insinuates that mathematics are directly pertinent to real world processes. This means that mathematics can be applied to processes that already exist in the real world. Since there are so many patterns that reveal themselves in real world processes, it is common for mathematical processes to
