These are all easily searchable requirements for nursing.
>historyKnowledge and understanding of ratios between armies of different sizes, at least understanding mathematical history (see: Men of Mathematics by E.T. Bell), understanding on a surface level how scientific/mathematical discoveries lent to the innovations of their respective eras, understanding how populations of the past grew over time along with which factors influenced this and how they compare to other populations.
>literatureMuch literature also has algebraic concepts discussed in them. For example, and I understand this isn't algebra at all but it still pays credit to the requirement of mathematical knowledge in literature, Euclid's Elements is considered the single greatest book regarding its use of logical deduction in history. There are also many other books that, while primarily discussing mathematics or science, are of interest to any literature student or scholar worth their weight, Newton's Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy, for example.
