That's the great thing about math. Most of it is not open to different interpretations, it is based on a set of proven rules/theorys. Even if we used different "number values", in essence it would still be the same.

Ex. 2X + 3Y = 0

Let a = the conversion factor between our old numbers and new numbers, assuming we had different "number values"

Becomes ---> 2aX + 3aY = 0
which is equivalent to ---> 2X + 3Y = 0

Most parts of math are definite; so no matter how we looked at it we would still come up with the same theories/rules.
