How to do math...without the formulae?

[knotty goblet]

Whats the context?

Like what formulae, what questions?

[ashen crown]

general

[knotty goblet]

And whats wrong with formulae

[ashen crown]

nothing

just wanted to ask

whether there exists some math

which doesnt have formulas

[knotty goblet]

Thats kind of difficult

If the problem is that formulas confuse you then maybe learn a derivation for them, it makes it easier to understand

If its just curiosity then idk

Its a good question

First math ever created did not have formulas. Euclid found a way to prove statements about objects and wrote a book Euclid's Elements. Check this out if you're curious: https://youtu.be/M-MgQC6z3VU

I guess general problem solving like with fluid mixtures or optimisation stuff

A lot of pure math kind of technically? But people like formulas and seek them so they get introduced anyway
