Why is there a demand for Class 3 GK Online Tuition Classes?
If someone asks you to give me " one hundred rupees", that means you are paying him Rs. 100 notes. But what if you get to know that hundred can also mean 120, not 100? Strange! But it is true. It is believed that the term "hundred" didn't exist hundreds of years ago. According to the Old Norse, "hundred" actually means 120. Numbers were grouped by twenties, with six twenties (120) being the most common. Later, when a number for five 20s was required, a little word meaning 'short hundred' was added to 'hundrath.' Thankfully, the language has progressed to the point where a hundred equals 100!
Similarly, we learn to write the Roman numbers in schools, which always starts from 1, not 0. Have you ever wondered why it is so? This is because, in Roman numerals, there are a total of zero zeros. While the ancient Greeks were aware of the idea of zero, they did not see zero as a number. Aristotle, for example, believed that zero was not a number since it could not be divided by zero. The Latin term "nulla" would have been used to symbolise zero instead of a Roman numeral. Because there was no need for a numeral to symbolise zero, there was no need for one to represent it.
