In what century were negative integers finally accepted?
it was around the time of christ.Although the first set of rules for dealing with negative numbers was stated in the 7th century by the Indian mathematician Brahmagupta, it is surprising that in 1758 the British mathematician Francis Maseres was claiming that negative numbers "... darken the very whole doctrines of the equations and make dark of the things which are in their nature excessively obvious and simple" .Maseres and his contemporary, William Friend took the view that negative numbers did not exist. However, other mathematicians around the same time had decided that negative numbers could be used as long as they had been eliminated during the calculations where they appeared.It was not until the 19th century when British mathematicians like De Morgan, Peacock, and others, began to investigate the 'laws of arithmetic' in terms of logical definitions that the problem of negative numbers was finally sorted out.However, there were references to negative numbers far earlier...In 200 BCE the Chinese number rod system (see note1 below) represented positive numbers in Red and Negative numbers in black. An article describing this system can be found here . These were used for commercial and tax calculations where the black cancelled out the red. The amount sold was positive (because of receiving money) and the amount spent in purchasing something was negative (because of paying out); so a money balance was positive, and a deficit negative.Negative intergers were accepted around the time of Christ.
How do you write 4 lakh in numbers?
In European notation a lakh is a unit in the Indian numbering system equal to one hundred thousand (100,000). Therefore 4 lakh = 400,000.However, the Indian notation (where one places the commas to group numbers) is different and a lakh is written as 1,00,000. Therefor in this notation 4 lakh = 1,00,000.
What is the history of negative numbers?
Although the first set of rules for dealing with negative numbers was stated in the 7th century by the Indian mathematician Brahmagupta, in 1758 the British mathematician Francis Maseres was claiming that negative numbers "... darken the very whole doctrines of the equations and make dark of the things which are in their nature excessively obvious and simple" . In 200 BC the Chinese number rod system represented positive numbers in Red and Negative numbers in black. These were used for commercial and tax calculations where the black cancelled out the red. The amount sold was positive and the amount spent in purchasing something was negative so a money balance was positive, and a negative.

What is the history of rational numbers?
The history of rational numbers goes way back to the beginning of historical times. It is believed that knowledge of rational number precedes history but no evidence of this survives today. The earliest evidence is in the Ancient Egyptian document the Kahun Papyrus. Ancient Greeks also worked on rational numbers as a part of their number theory. Euclid's elements dates to around 300 BC. Indian mathematicians also worked on rational numbers. This is documented in different texts but the most important is probably the Sthananga Sutra which dates back to around the second century BC.
What year did Fibonacci make his Fibonacci numbers?
The Fibonacci sequence is named after Italian mathematician Leonardo of Pisa, known as Fibonacci. His 1202 book Liber Abaci introduced the sequence to Western European mathematics, although the sequence had been described earlier as Virahankanumbers in Indian mathematics.
