This book explains why the number ten is so important and why it is the base of the numbers. The Romans used X for their number ten. Ten can only be divided by 2 and 5 so it makes it easier to calculate. Math is also much easier while using the number 10. Also it is easier to do change going from ten dollars.Illustrator: - Charles Stenson
