MathS (short for mathematics!) is used in history in a wide variety of places.

1. To work out that the Battle of Hastings (14 Oct 1066) happened 940 years ago (2006-1066)

2. To calculate the percentages of soldiers killed in wars.

3. To estimate relative costs (e.g. if a loaf of bread in 1906 cost one penny and an average worker earned one hundred pennies a day then a loaf of bread should cost about fifty pence today)

4. To calculate how old people were when they died (Shakespeare 1564-1616 = 52).

So Maths can be very useful in history.
