To be a little more detailed, the base-10 number system that we use is based simply off of our fingers. We have 10 fingers, and so when civilization was developing the concept of counting, it was easiest to count each additional unit to be counted using a finger to represent each unit. After 10 units were counted, another round of counting must have been started, using some other system (like another person's hand) to track the number of complete sets of 10.
To draw a parallel, if humans had evolved to have simply a club at the end of each arm instead of five fingers, it is likely that humans would have evolved using a base-2 number system (binary).
Maybe the Egyptians are the first known civilization to record this, but this theory is a widely-accepted theory as to the evolution and adoption of the base-10 number system.
What else can I help you with?
How did we get our number system?
Long ago, the romans made roman numerals and the Europeans adapted this, but then they recognised the Arabs had a base 60 number system and saw it to be easier to use.
What number system other than Hindu Arabic made use of place value and zero?
Mayan
What is the Hindu-Arabic number system?
It is the number system we use everyday.
Was this number system advance for that time compared to other number systems?
well.... if you had more then one number system and we dont use them, then the one we use is better because we use it, other wise we would use a different system. hope this helped :)
