Order in math means several different things depending on the type of equation. Generally, it is the value of a number, a quantity as in differential equation of order 1, order 2. Or order gives rise to numbers. In a mathematical set it is a specific sequence where you then have a first element, a second element, an nth element. Order in society isn't a number at all.
