over 5000 yr ago it was invented
The first people to use the decimal system and the number zero WERE NOT THE CHINESE! I am learning about this in school. The ancient Hindu's invented them during the Gupta Empire.
The decimal (base 10) number system can be found in many of the world's oldest civilizations and records including the Egyptians (3000 BC), Minoans (1600 BC), Bronze Age Greeces (1900 BC), Indian Brahmi (300 BC), Hittites (1600 BC), and Chinese (1700 BC). As such, either the system was invented multiple times or the inventor lost in pre-history.However, the first documented case of a decimal number system being invented is by Archimedes (287-212 BC) in his Sand Reckoner.

the Mayan number system is called the Hieroglyphics, they thought that zero counted as a number, so they put that zero into the counting system... i hope this answer helps
The Mayan number system is vigesimal (based on twenties)The Roman number system is decimal (based on tens)
The Mayan people?
The Mayans based on the 20 number system because of 10 fingers and 10 toes. The Mayan number was very useful to the Mayans in the past. Today, they use the modern number system we use today.

Mayan
i didn't know
an advanced calendar system a fully developed system of writing using pictures before pre-columbian times a number system with their own symbol for zero
The Mayan symbol for number five is a horizontal bar.
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 fractionThe 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
because americans are stupid
Both the Mayan and Roman number systems are non-positional, meaning the value of a symbol does not depend on its position within the number. Both systems use additive and subtractive principles to represent numbers. Both systems lack a symbol for zero, which can make calculations more challenging compared to the modern decimal system.
