Number Systems. 1  All counting numbers together with 0 are called whole numbers. 2  0 is the smallest whole number and there is no largest whole number. 3  Our number system is based on counting in tens i.e. 4  it has base 10. 5  Every whole number can be written by using the symbols 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 called digits. Every whole number can be written by using the symbols 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 called digits. 2  The place value of a (non-zero) digit depends upon the place it occupies in the number; the place value of the digit 0 is always 0 regardless of the place it occupies in the number.
