Systems which use abbreviations for repetitions of symbols (e.g. Hieratic numerals, Chinese numerals). Then that was replaced with the Hindu-Arabic numeral system (0,1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 ...... the system we use today) superceded the Roman numeral system because the four operations of arithmetic was easier to work out i.e. addition, subtraction, division and multiplication. A nought figure was incorporated into the Hindu-Arabic system of counting which made the positional place value of numbers more easily recognisable. Fibonacci popularised Hindu-Arabic numerals to the Western/European/Roman world.

When did Arabic numerals replace roman numerals?

Roman numerals were common up until the 14th century. However, the Hindu-Arabic system, which replaced it, was first introduced in the 10th century, and was derived from the Indian numeral system first used in the 5th century. The Roman system started in around 400 BC but the system we use today didn't arrive until the 1st century AD (albeit without subtractive notation such as IV). There have been other numeral systems, including positional notation systems, that pre-date the Romans, as far back as 1,500 BC.
