Description: The ancient Egyptians utilized a numeral system for counting and solving written mathematical problems, often involving multiplication and fractions. Evidence for Egyptian mathematics is limited to a scarce amount of surviving sources written on papyrus. From these texts it is known that ancient Egyptians understood concepts of geometry, such as determining the surface area and volume of three-dimensional shapes useful for architectural engineering, and algebra, such as the false position method and quadratic equations. ❤ SUBSCRIBE TO EARTH PLANET: bit.ly/3aTM0kH 🦖 DINOSAURS DOCUMENTARY MOVIES: bit.ly/3hDDYQn 🦖 DINO FIGHTS: bit.ly/Dino_fights 🦁 AFRICA SERENGETI DOCUMENTARIES: bit.ly/Africa_serengeti 🌍 THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD: bit.ly/3gzkQl3 A guided tour of the history of numbers and how they’ve shaped the development of humankind is at the heart of this unique series.
