In Hinduism
Ganitashastra (Mathematics and Algebra)
: archive.org: Hindu MathematicsDaśa岵 (दशभा�) or Daśāṃśa refers to “ten-parts� (i.e., one-tenth) in Bhinna (“fractions�) and Bhāga (“unit fractions�), which refers to one of the twenty operations (logistics) of ṭīgṇiٲ (“science of calculation which requires the use of writing material—the board�), according to Pṛthudakasvāmī’s commentary on the Brāhmasphuṭasiddhānta by Brahmagupta, a Sanskrit treatise on ancient Indian mathematics (ṇiٲ-śٰ) and astronomy from the 7th century.—In the Śulba, unit fractions are denoted by the use of a cardinal number with the term 岵 or ṃśa; thus pañcadaśa-岵 (“fifteen-parts�) is equivalent to one-fifteenth, sapta-岵 (“seven-parts�) is equivalent to one-seventh, and so on [e.g., daśa岵].

Ganita (गणित) or Ganitashastra refers to the ancient Indian science of mathematics, algebra, number theory, arithmetic, etc. Closely allied with astronomy, both were commonly taught and studied in universities, even since the 1st millennium BCE. Ganita-shastra also includes ritualistic math-books such as the Shulba-sutras.
