If this is subject wise, they were able to perform geometric, arithmetic, and algebra problems.

Extra info - they wrote multiplication tables and dealt with geometrical exercises and division problems.

The sumerian mathimatical system allowed them to divide into fractions and multiply into millions. The 360 degree circle, the foot in measuring 12 inchesand dozen all come from sumerian math.
