Algebra (Arabic: al-jebr‎, from الجبر al-jabr, meaning "reunion of broken parts") is a branch of mathematics concerning the study of structure, relation, and quantity. Elementary algebra is the branch that deals with solving for the operands of arithmetic equations. Modern or abstract algebra has its origins as an abstraction of elementary algebra. Many historians agree that the earliest mathematical research was done by the priest classes of ancient civilizations, most notably the Babylonians, to go along with religious rituals. The origins of algebra can thus be traced back to ancient Babylonian mathematicians roughly four thousand years ago. After further development among Hellenistic and Indian mathematicians, it was eventually the work of Islamic mathematicians that established algebr
