- Slide 5
- Numerical Systems Numerical systems are based on grouping
systems that rely on certain bases. Represent a useful set of
numbers Give every number represented a unique representation
Reflect the algebraic and arithmetic structure of the numbers Our
numerical system is a base 10 system. Can you think of different
ways that we use a base 10 system everyday? Next
- Slide 6
- A base-5 system has been used in many cultures for counting. It
originated from counting the number of fingers on a human hand. A
base-8 system was devised by the Yuki tribe of Northern California,
who used the spaces between the fingers to count, corresponding to
the digits one through eight. Continue
- Slide 7
- There are many other bases that have been used in ancient times
and in present day. Base 5- South American Tribes Base 20- Mayan
Base 60- Babylonian Cuneiform Can you think of things that are base
12 that we see everyday? Continue

Think of base 5 and base 10 systems.
- Slide 10
- Correct Answer! Great job! Keep going! Next
- Slide 11
- Base 10 Systems Along with our modern number system that we use
everyday, many other civilizations also use base 10 systems like
the Egyptians, Ancient Chinese-Japanese, Attic Greek, and Romans.
But how did our system come to be how it is today? Lets Find
Out!
- Slide 12
- Hindu-Arabic Number System As early as 250 B.C., the Hindus of
India invented a new number system. The oldest preserved examples
are found on stone columns erected in India by King Asoka. It is
likely that traders and travelers of the Mediterranean coast
introduced the new number system to the Arabs. In 711 A.D., the
Arabs invaded Spain and the number system emerged into Europe.
Next
- Slide 13
- The Arabs invaded Spain in 711 A.D., bringing their number
system along with them. Continue
http://www.acs.ucalgary.ca/~vandersp/Courses/maps/fullmap2.jpg
- Slide 14
- The early engravings do not have a zero or the positional
notation. The Hindu-Arabic number system became popular because it
was easier to write out calculations. Later, when zero and the
positional system were developed, the Hindu-Arabic number system
became superior than any of the other number systems being used at
the time. Aryabhatta of Kusumapura who lived during the 5 th
century developed the place value notation and Brahmagupta later
introduced the symbol zero in the 6 th century. Lets see what youve
learned!
- Slide 15
- Why is our modern number system called the Hindu-Arabic number
system? The Hindus and the Arabs developed the number system at the
same exact time. The Hindus invented the number system, and then
Arabs continued to spread it around Europe. The Hindus and the
Arabs were at war with each other over the number system. The Arabs
invented the number system and the Hindus stole it from them.
- Slide 16
- Incorrect Answer! Sorry, you didnt get the question right.
Heres a hint: Remember who brought the number system to Spain
during the conquest of 711 A.D. Go back and review Try Again!
- Slide 17
- Correct! Great Job! Youre ready to learn more about different
number systems! Next
- Slide 18
- Simple Number Systems Many numeral systems are simple. Simple
means that there is a symbol for the base number, b, and also a
symbol for b 2, b 3, b 4, etc. A number is expressed by using these
symbols additively, repeating the symbol a certain number of times.
Examples of simple number systems are: Egyptian Hieroglyphics,
Attic Greek, and Roman Numerals. Learn about Egyptian!
- Slide 19
- Egyptian Hieroglyphics This system was used in Egypt until the
first century B.C. Hieroglyphics are based on a scale of 10 and
consecutive bases of 10. There are symbols for 1, 10, 10 2,10 3,10
4, 10 5, and 10 6. Multiples of these values were expressed by
repeating the symbol as many times as needed Learn more!
- Slide 20
- Egyptian Hieroglyphics were used in Egypt throughout Persian
rule in the 6 th and 5 th centuries B.C. and even after Alexander
the Greats conquest during the Macedonian and Roman periods. Learn

Greek! Move on
- Slide 28
- Attic Greek Attic Greek was developed sometime before the third
century B.C. Like Egyptian Hieroglyphics, there are symbols for 1,
10, 100, 1000, and 10,000. But, there is also a symbol for 5. Learn
more!
- Slide 29
- Attic Greek was used until the 4th century BC, when it was
replaced by Koine Greek, known as the Common Dialect.

Roman Numerals
- Slide 35
- Roman Numerals The last type of simple grouping system is Roman
Numerals. Roman Numerals were the standard numbering system in
Ancient Rome and Europe until around 900 AD, when the Hindu-Arabic
system emerged. There is no symbol for 0 in Roman Numerals. Learn
more!
- Slide 36
- Although the Roman numerals are now written with letters of the
Roman alphabet, they were originally independent symbols. Next
- Slide 37
- Roman Numerals Learn the subtraction rule!
- Slide 38
- Subtraction Rule In modern times, the subtractive principle has
become very common when writing Roman Numerals. I can precede only
V or X Examples 4 is written as IV 9 is written as IX X can precede
only L or C Examples 40 is written as XL 90 is written as XC C can
precede only D or M Examples 400 is written as CD 900 is written as

- Slide 43
- Correct Answer! You are ready to move on to Multiplicative
Number Systems! Keep going!
- Slide 44
- Multiplicative Number Systems In a multiplicative system, there
are only symbols for 1-9, 10, 10 2, 10 3, etc. We need to first
write the number in expanded form. Examples 54= 5 x 10 + 4 613= 6 x
10 2 + 1 x 10 + 3 So, we dont need to have a number for 40.
Instead, we can write it as 4 x 10. One example of a multiplicative
system is that of the Ancient Chinese-Japanese.

- Slide 45
- Ancient Chinese-Japanese Number System The traditional
Chinese-Japanese number system has characters for the numerals 0
through 9, 10, 100, and 1000. Numbers are written in expanded form
from top to bottom instead of left to right. Since this system has
a symbol for 0, it is used as a place holder. Learn more!

In 1899 a major discovery was made at the archaeological site at
the village of Xiao dun.Thousands of bones and tortoise shells were
discovered there which had been inscribed with ancient Chinese
numerals. Archaeologists think that they date back to the Late
Shang dynasty from the 14 th century BC. Continue

Positional Number Systems
- Slide 53
- Positional Number Systems Before writing a number in positional
numeral system, it is necessary to convert the number to a
different base. If the base is b, there are basic symbols for 0, 1,
2, b-1. These are called the digits. More
- Slide 54
- There are two civilizations that used positional number systems
(other than our modern Hindu-Arabic system) Mayan (base 20)
Babylonian Cuneiform (base 60) Sometimes, if the number in a
position is bigger than 10, we use a comma to separate the digits.
Example- in a base 20 system, digits are from 0-19. It would be
very confusing if the digits were 18, 19, and 5. If someone wrote
18195, no one would know where the distinct digits are. So, use
commas to separate digits to eliminate confusion. Learn to compute
in different bases

Babylonian Cuneiform! Learn now!
- Slide 64
- Babylonian Cuneiform The Babylonians used clay tablets to write
with. They pressed into the wet clay with a stylus that was shaped
like a triangle. Remember that the Babylonians used a base 60
system. First, convert the number to base 60. Only use digits from
0-59 when writing the numerals in cuneiform. Next
- Slide 65
- Knowledge of cuneiform was lost until 1835 A.D., when Henry
Rawlinson, an English army officer, found inscriptions on a cliff
at Behistun in Persia.
http://kbagdanov.files.wordpress.com/2008/10/map-1.jpg Next
- Slide 66
- Pay attention to the way that the stylus is facing, different
ways mean different numbers! A triangle facing right is the symbol
for 10. A triangle pointing down is the symbol for 1. A triangle
pointing down beside a triangle facing the left is the symbol for
subtraction. Keep going!
- Slide 67
- Why the subtraction sign?!?! The Babylonians decided to use the
subtraction sign to limit the number of symbols being used. For
example, it is easier and uses less symbols to write 10-1 than it
is to write 9 1s. 10-1 9 Lets see some examples

- Slide 72
- Mayan Vegesimal system The Mayans used a base 20 system. During
Spanish expeditions in the Yucatan in the early sixteenth-century,
this number system was discovered. The numbers are written very
simply with dots and dashes which probably originated as pebbles
and sticks. Learn more!
- Slide 73
- The Mayans had a sophisticated number system, but a little
complex because it is base 20. The Mayans probably chose five and
twenty as the two bases of their system as there are five fingers
on one hand, and twenty fingers and toes on one person.
