The problems involve arithmetic, algebra and geometry, including mensuration. The topics covered include fractions, square roots, arithmetic and geometric progressions , solutions of simple equations, simultaneous linear equations , quadratic equations and indeterminate equations of the second degree.
Pātīgaṇita is the term used in pre-modern Indian mathematical literature to denote the area of mathematics dealing with arithmetic and mensuration. [1] The term is a compound word formed by combining the words pātī and gaṇita. The former is a non-Sanskrit word meaning a "board" and the latter is a Sanskrit word meaning "science of ...
The history of measurement systems in India begins in early Indus Valley civilisation with the earliest surviving samples dated to the 3rd millennium BCE.

Funny he should say that. Johnson, who was hired as head coach by Jones, teamed with Aikman to win Super Bowl titles in 1993 and 1994 before a falling-out with the owner.
Śrīdhara wrote two extant mathematical treatises. The first, Pāṭīgaṇita, also called Bṛhat-Pāṭi ("Bigger Pāṭi") and Navaśatī ("Having 900"), extensively covered the practical mathematics of the time including arithmetic and mensuration (the part of geometry concerned with calculating sizes, lengths, areas, and volumes).
