Math is the US abbreviation of the word mathematics.

The word 'mathematics' comes from the Greek word μάθημα (mathema) which means the thing that you learn. Nowadays it has a much narrower meaning to do with the manipulation of numbers and calculation. You can find more from clicking on the link, below, to Wikipedia.
