mathematically

/ˌmæθəˈmætɪkəɫi/, /ˌmæθəˈmætɪkɫi/ adv

According to or using mathematics.

Word Origin Math comes from Greek manthanein 'to learn'—so mathematics is literally 'the things learned.' The -ic, -al, -ly suffixes stack up to make the adverb. The same root gives us polymath (one who has learned much). It's a great reminder that math was originally just 'what you study.'
