I am having a hard time understanding the duodecimal system.
There is no specific name. And it is not "duodecimal" since the number 12 is not a duodecimal "digit".
12 (Twelve).
Duodecimal
The base number is 12
This is used for purchasing or selling items priced per dozen; each dozen contains 12 units.
The duodecimal system, or base-12, can be used in various ways, such as in measurements and timekeeping, where it can provide more precise subdivisions. For instance, a dozen (12) is commonly used in counting items, and a gross (144) is used in bulk purchasing. Additionally, duodecimal can simplify fractions and arithmetic in certain contexts, making it advantageous in mathematical problems. It's also explored in theoretical mathematics and computer science as an alternative to binary or decimal systems.
Octal, binary, duodecimal, and decimal, to name but four.
Any number that has a fraction that is not duodecimal (twelfths or factors thereof).

After Undecimal, which represents the base-11 numbering system, the next number system is Duodecimal, or base-12. In Duodecimal, digits range from 0 to 11, with additional symbols often used for the values 10 and 11. This system is sometimes used in various cultures and applications, such as measurement and timekeeping.
i do not know how to use embalming in a sentence. (there is the sentence)
So- you are asking when to use 'when' in a sentence. When you are asking how to use when in a question, you are already using when in a sentence, because a question actually is a sentence. I like to use when in a sentence whenever I like.
