Math is a language of representation. That being said simple mathematics can be proven with physical equivalents. Like for addition if you have 2 rocks and your friend has 2, together you have 4. If you draw 3 circles, and put 4 rocks in each, that’s 12 rocks. Have 12 rocks give each 3 people 4 rocks. For more complex maths, its just a combination of proving something simple and going from that. Other people say proofs and thats about it.
