Math was discovered

This is such a fascinating question. And also such a complicated one to answer but, here goes nothing.
I'm gonna say it was discovered.
I think it was discovered because if you have one stone to your right and another stone to your left, you have no stones in the center but, if you put the left stone on the center, BOOM! 0+1=1 and if we put the right stone in the center, we get 2 stones in the center. Now, I think that was probably the most important discovery in our evolution.
And then, after our brains evolved and became capable of more complex thoughs, we ended up figuring out multiplicatons, divisions, square roots, integrals and trips to the moon.
Thank you and welcome to my TED talk.

I think it was discovered because if you have one stone to your right and another stone to your left, you have no stones in the center b. But, if you put the left stone oin the center, BOOM!

This was a very long sentence :)

0+1=1 a. And if we put the right stone in the center, we get 2 stones in the center.

Comma would be okay here, but making it another sentence is better I think.

Now, I think that was probably the most important discovery in our evolution.

And then, after our brains evolved and became capable of more complex thoughts, we ended up figuring out multiplications, divisions, square roots, integralstion and trips to the moon.

A little more natural to refer to the abstract concepts here, rather than "multiplications". That would be more like a collection of many operations: "Ugh, this maths homework has so many multiplications in it." Although even there you'd still be more likely to say "so much multiplication".

Thank you and welcome to my TED talk.

Was this just the intro to your TED talk? You'd usually say "welcome" if you've only just started :)

Feedback

You are very good. Very natural tone of voice. And I agree entirely, maths is an abstract, universal truth that existed before us and will exist after we are gone. Possibly even after *everything* has gone. Closest we can come to godhead, if you ask me.
