While Roman numerals were fine for notating simple numbers, they were incredibly difficult to work with in any computational sense, due to the non-positional nature of the numerals. With the evolution of the Hindu-Arabic base-10 positional system, numeric notation and computation was greatly simplified. Adoption by mathematicians was already widespread in the East by the time it reached Europe, thus adoption by the British was inevitable.
