The French philosopher Ronnie Descartes sees that the mathematical meanings of numbers and mathematical forms are innate thoughts such as the idea of God and what God gives to man in concepts that can not be wrong.
Physical reality applies it own kind of mathematics.
Humans can observe reality and can reason about abstract concepts. In that way humans derive their kind of mathematics.

Hi, Hassan, it seems such a simple question, doesn't it. Although, anyone who works with younger children will say, it isn't simple at all. Simply helping a child understand the concept behind 2+2=4 is difficult without the experimentation using fingers, sweets, marbles, etc. However, the experimentation relies on the subject's understanding of 'numbers'. So, what if the subject has no knowledge of numbers at all? Well, then you are in the position that the MIT team found themslves in when working in Amazonian Brazil. And they may help with an answer to your question. . . or just throw up more questions. Here is a link to a piece in 'Science Daily': Massachusetts Institute Of Technology. "Language Without Numbers: Amazonian Tribe Has No Word To Express 'One,' Other Numbers." ScienceDaily. ScienceDaily, 15 July 2008. .
Mathematics is everywhere…in you…in me…in the air …what you need is the eyes to see it in every creation of God. It is the pulse of the Earth and soul of the world. Mathematics exhibits itself everyday everywhere in almost every fact and course of life. Wherever you go, whatever you do, you are using mathematics daily even without realizing it. Have you ever honestly thought about how mathematics is engaged in your everyday life or have you ever realized that the work you are doing right now may involve mathematics?
