Definition of the word mathematically

The word "mathematically" has its roots in the Greek language. The word "mathema" (μαθήμα) means "knowledge" or "learning", and the suffix "-tic" (-τικός) is used to form an adjective meaning "pertaining to" or "related to". Therefore, "mathematically" can be translated to "pertaining to knowledge" or "related to mathema". In English, the word "mathematically" has been used since the 16th century to describe something that is related to or is a characteristic of mathematics. The term is often used to describe a solution or method that is rigorous and precise, as in "mathematically proven" or "mathematically modelled". Over time, the word "mathematically" has evolved to encompass not only the study of mathematics but also the application of mathematical principles to other fields, such as science, engineering, and economics.
