There are many reasons why the Mayan and the Hindu Arabic number systems are different some of these are why.
The Mayan number System has a place value and a non place value system and the Hindu Arabic number system has a place value system.
Their based numbers are different, the Mayans is 20 and the Hindu Arabic is 10.
The Mayan number system only has three symbols, and the Hindu Arabic number system has up to ten symbols including the zero.
Hindu Arabic number system reads or makes it from left to right on the Mayan number system you make or read it from top to bottom.
The Mayans also didn't have the concept of fraction
The similarities are that both number systems have a symbol for zero and that both number systems could do addition and subtraction even if it was difficult in the Mayan system
