Who invented math?

Answer 1

No one really invented math but you do have people whom we call fathers of certain types of math...Euclid - father of Euclidean Geometry, etc.

Answer 2

To keep track of amounts of things, notation called numbers was invented by all early cultures, mathematics, or the manipulation of those numbers followed soon after. This refers to true, proper mathematical manipulation, not the stuff Enron did a few years ago.
The "zero" was first used in the Arab section of the world. This is also where algebra came from.
Geometry, or more precisely, planar [for flat] geometry was Greek in origin--good ol Euclid, and that Pythagoras dude too. Another tool for figuring things out was invented by Isaac Newton. He needed a tool to describe the forces acting between bodies. This tool he built is to this day called the Calculus. A dude named Leibniz also helped make life of science and engineering majors hell by adding his modifications to the Calculus. Wonder if they knew just how much "fun" they would give to certain people throughout time. Everyone, let's give them a really big, "Thanks!!!" Okay, or not.

Answer 3

Math wasn't invented in a day


Question: Who invented math?


Math was not invented in one day or by some particular person. First people did observations and learned how to cope with everyday problems that might be called "mathematical" like counting (for keeping track of their domestic animals or doing trade), and learning to make different shapes (basket weaving, building shelters, and pottery). Very ancient animal bones with have been found in Africa and Europe containing notches made by human beings, who did some kind of keeping track of counts. These bones are believed to be between 8500 and 11,000 years old. Very old circular structures, which seem to be of astronomical significance, are found all over the world. Perhaps you have heard about Stonehenge in England, for example. This is where first knowledge in arithmetic and geometry comes from.

We do not know when, how, or why operations like addition or multiplication were invented, but they appeared several thousand years ago, apparently independently, in China, India, Mesopotamia, and Egypt. The oldest clay tablets with mathematics on it were found in Mesopotamia (nowadays Iraq) dating about 4000 years ago. The oldest written texts in mathematics - papyruses - come from Egypt, where civilization was already about 2000 years old when those papyruses were written. In ancient Sulba Sutras that come from India and are about 3500 years old one can find rules for building altars.

Among other things there is a famous theorem of Pythagoras about the sides of a right triangle. It is believed that Pythagoras was the first to prove this theorem – which means to answer the question of why this theorem is correct. That is why this fact is known as the Pythagoras theorem. This was happening in ancient Greece about 2500 years ago. From this time on there is a tradition in mathematics to always answer the question of why your result is tru

Answer 4

Nobody invented math. People just invented notation to make it more convenient to write down descriptions of the mathematics they were discovering.

Answer 5

The Sumerians are credited with being the first to discover mathematics. In many ways their mathematics were much more complex than modern math because it was based on powers of 60, rather than powers of 10.

Answer 6

Mahamd invented algabra

Answer 7

Somebody needed a system to show to other people that 10 coconuts plus 3 coconuts is less than 20 coconuts.

Answer 8

A crazy monk nerd

Answer 9

A man who wanted a reason to stay home and stay in his room.

duhhh.

GOD bless

Answer 10

God, since supposedly the universe is built mathamatically.
