How a Number System Works. Number systems are used to describe the quantity of something or represent certain information. Because of this, I can say that the word calculator contains ten letters. Our number system, the decimal system, uses ten symbols. Therefore, decimal is said to be Base Ten. By describing systems with bases, we can gain an understanding of how that particular system works.
Number Systems. 1  All counting numbers together with 0 are called whole numbers. 2  0 is the smallest whole number and there is no largest whole number. 3  Our number system is based on counting in tens i.e. 4  it has base 10. 5  Every whole number can be written by using the symbols 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 called digits. Every whole number can be written by using the symbols 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 called digits. 2  The place value of a (non-zero) digit depends upon the place it occupies in the number; the place value of the digit 0 is always 0 regardless of the place it occupies in the number.
