Hindu-Arabic Numeral
Ah, let's take a moment to appreciate the beauty in both Hindu-Arabic and ancient Egyptian numerals. While Hindu-Arabic numerals use a place-value system with symbols like 1, 2, 3, etc., ancient Egyptian numerals relied on hieroglyphs and a base 10 system. Despite their differences, both systems share the common goal of helping us understand and communicate numbers, showing the wonderful diversity of human creativity and ingenuity.
74 is the Hindu-Arabic representation of the number seventy-four. The term Hindu-Arabic defines the system, not the symbols; the symbols are independent of the system. The Hindu and Arabic nations have their own symbols, as do many other regions around the world. However, the Latin symbols are internationally recognised as the standard form of numeric notation, regardless of the system.
There are really only three main counting systems: roman numerals, tallys, and Arabic numbers. Arabic numbers are the simplest to make large number combonations.
