Read as powers of two: 256 + 128 + 8 = 392.
In historical numeral systems
Egyptian
3 coils of rope, 9 hobbles, 2 strokes
3 × 100 + 9 × 10 + 2 × 1 = 392. The signs are simply repeated and added; where they sit on the line is a matter of layout, not value.
Babylonian
6 vertical wedges (sixties place), 3 corner wedges + 2 vertical wedges (units place)
6 × 60 + 32 = 392. Places are separated by a space on the tablet, with the higher place written first.
Greek (Ionic)
tau, then koppa, then beta, marked as a numeral
tau-koppa-beta + keraia
tau + koppa + beta written in descending order and added — the letters carry their values wherever they stand, so this is addition, not place value.
Hebrew numerals
shin, then tsadi, then bet
shin-tsadi-bet
shin (300) + tsadi (90) + bet (2) = 392, written in descending order.
Maya
3 bars + 4 dots (upper, twenties place) over 2 bars + 2 dots (lower, units place)
19 × 20 + 12 = 392. Places stack vertically with the smallest at the bottom, so the upper group is worth twenty times the lower.
Systems that simply cannot reach this value are left out. Where a script needs a font most readers do not have, the reading is given instead of the glyphs — see number systems for each system in full.
