The Romans used a duodecimal rather than a decimal system for fractions, as the divisibility of twelve (12 = 2 2 × 3) makes it easier to handle the common fractions of 1⁄ 3 and 1⁄ 4 than does a system based on ten (10 = 2 × 5). Notation for fractions other than 1⁄ 2 is mainly found on surviving Roman coins, many of which had values that were duodecimal fractions of the unit as. Fractions less than 1⁄ 2 are indicated by a dot ( ·) for each uncia "twelfth", the source of the English words inch and ounce; dots are repeated for fractions up to five twelfths. Six twelfths (one half), is S for semis "half". Uncia dots were added to S for fractions from seven to eleven twelfths, just as tallies were added to V for whole numbers from six to nine. [46] The arrangement of the dots was variable and not necessarily linear. Five dots arranged like ( ⁙) (as on the face of a die) are known as a quincunx, from the name of the Roman fraction/coin. The Latin words sextans and quadrans are the source of the English words sextant and quadrant.Names of monarchs and popes, e.g. Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom, Pope Benedict XVI. These are referred to as regnal numbers and are usually read as ordinals; e.g. II is pronounced "the second". This tradition began in Europe sporadically in the Middle Ages, gaining widespread use in England during the reign of Henry VIII. Previously, the monarch was not known by numeral but by an epithet such as Edward the Confessor. Some monarchs (e.g. Charles IV of Spain, Louis XIV of France and William IV of Great Britain) seem to have preferred the use of IIII instead of IV on their coinage (see illustration).

The ancient Romans adopted this counting method from the Etruscans, who lived on the Italian Peninsula before the Romans. The Etruscans had a system where one count was one cut (I), every fifth count was a double cut (𐌡), and every tenth count became a cross-cut (X). Children pull digits out of a bag to create 4 digit numbers and compete and compare. Take the opportunity to randomly ask, “What is 1000 more?” or “What is 1000 less?” Activity C - Place Value KS2 KS3. This activity is no longer availableKeyser, Paul (1988).
