The number system most widely used in the world today is known as the Hindu-Arabic numeral system, or __________ number system. (1-1)
To fill: The blank in the statement “The number system most widely used in the world today is known as the Hindu-Arabic numeral system, or _____ number system”.
Answer to Problem 1CR
The complete statement is “The number system most widely used in the world today is known as the Hindu-Arabic numeral system, or decimal number system”.
Explanation of Solution
Decimal number system is system that uses the 10 Hindu-Arabic symbols 0 through 9.
In this system, the value is affected by the position of the digit to the left or right of the decimal point.
Therefore, the number system most widely used in the world today is known as the Hindu-Arabic numeral system, or decimal number system.
