← HistoryWhich outcome resulted from Indian numerals simplifying algebraic calculations?
A)Increased geometric complexity calculations
B)Greater accuracy celestial prediction✓
C)Reduced land surveying precision
D)Slower design for irrigation canals
💡 Explanation
Algebraic calculation improved significantly because positional notation enabled simplified manipulations through symbolic representation via algebraic rearrangement; therefore, that improved complex calculations leading to greater predictive power in celestial modelling, rather than land surveying.
