Math Modeling
Eykhoff (1974) defined a mathematical model as "A representation of the essential aspects of an existing system (or a system to be constructed) which presents knowledge of that system in usable form."
Human beings have always been learning from nature. We can try to comprehend fairly complex phenomena in the world by identifying the guiding principles and predicting consequences.
Math modeling deals with modelling of systems on paper using mathematical concepts and ideas. Here the accuracy of a prediction completely depends on the kind of assumptions made in modeling the real world.
In this contest, you should not only represent the system accurately as a mathematical model but you also need to look at the computability of your model. It is imperative to strike the delicate balance between precision and tractability.
