∙ 11y agoPharaohs would give equal pieces of land to their servants and workers to grow crops. They would tax their land yearly, but sometimes the land would be damaged by the over flow of rivers thus causing the workers to lose a portion of their crops and income. The pharaohs recognized this and would exclude the damaged land from the taxes since it wouldn't be fair to pay full price for land they couldn't use. So the pharaohs had to use math to calculate how much land had been lost and adjust the price of their taxes per individual person.
