Melvil Dewey created the Dewey Decimal system. It is a classification system used by libraries, and not what is meant in the question.

The decimal number system is the number system that we all use on a daily basis; it was invented by a succession of Arab and Hindu mathematicians beginning about 1400 years ago.
