The roman counting board used to solve problems in mathematics was called abacus [άβαξ, in the Greek language]

The Roman Republic declines. Unable to solve it problems peacefully, Rome plunged into a series of civil wars.

Roman mathematics refers to mathematics performed during Roman times, generally using Roman numerals and/or a Roman abacus.
347 - 289 = 58 CCCXXXXVII - CCLXXXVIIII = LVIII On the counting board cancel out the numerals on the left with the numerals on the right and you'll have CX - LII remaining which = LVIII
Roman Numerals are essential for simple counting, a universal counting method as well.
The Romans themselves didn't encounter any problems with their counting system which was in use for over a thousand years. It only is today that people have problems with the Roman numeral system because it doesn't contain a nought figure for positional place value purposes but the positional place value of these numerals are self evident so a nought figure is not needed.
There are really only three main counting systems: roman numerals, tallys, and Arabic numbers. Arabic numbers are the simplest to make large number combonations.
Roman numerals
Decimal.
In today's notation of Roman numerals it is: XLIX. But the Romans themselves would have calculated 49 on an abacus counting board as XXXXVIIII and probably simplified it to IL by placing I to both sides of tne numerals.
Roman, for one example.
They used Roman numerals and an abacus counting device
some of the roman board games are chess,game of the generals..
