Today I was going into math and thought what if the number 0 is an invention? The number 0 was used by the Babylonians in 700 B.The Babylonians first used the number 0 as a place holder. Then later on a man named Brahmagupta started solving math problems using the number 0. What would happen if the number zero did not exist? The math system would have thousands of problems missing and incorrect. The economy would be off, we could never say I have zero tolerance or zero hour also we would not have the prime meridian and 0 degrees Fahrenheit and 0 degrees Celsius. I would like to here your opinion on this question so please leave a comment for this article.
