When did the modern numbers begin?

Modern numbers, known as Hindu-Arabic numerals, began to take shape around the 6th century CE in India. They were later transmitted to the Islamic world, where they were further developed and popularized. By the 10th century, these numerals began to spread to Europe, becoming widely adopted by the 15th century. This system replaced Roman numerals due to its efficiency and versatility in calculations.


How are modern numbers like the Egyptian numbers?

Modern numbers and Egyptian numbers both serve as systems for representing quantities and performing calculations. Like the Egyptians, who used a base-10 system with symbols for specific values, modern numbers utilize a positional decimal system where the value of digits depends on their position. Both systems also rely on the concept of combining symbols to express larger numbers, though modern numbers are more efficient due to their use of place value. Overall, while the symbols and methods differ, the fundamental purpose of conveying numerical information remains the same.


How is invented natural numbers?

Natural numbers were invented as a way to count and quantify objects. They start from the concept of "one" and continue sequentially (1, 2, 3, ...) to represent whole quantities. Historically, different cultures developed their own counting systems, which laid the foundation for the modern numeral system we use today. The abstraction of natural numbers allows for various mathematical operations and concepts to be built upon them.
