You might want to
gather different ideas by looking it up in various dictionaries or
encyclopedias, and reading the introductory chapters of several
popular books on math, which may tell what the authors think math is
all about. There is no one "correct" answer.
As you can see, math goes far beyond arithmetic, or even algebra and
geometry. All sorts of logical thinking fit this description. And math
is a very creative field, involving exploration of the unknown, not
just learning rules we are told to follow. Mathematicians invent
abstract worlds, and discover all the surprises in them that are never
noticed by those who don't look for the abstractions behind the
reality.ma
