What if we only had the digits 0-8?

Would math be harder? Bear with me now, I’m kinda tired.
Is ten a perfect number? If we had 11 different digits, would it be as easy multiplying your way up? What determined that we have 10 digits? I’m sorry if I’m difficult to understand now, but try thinking about it, how math would be so very fundamentally different with 11 different digits.
Going back to ten digits, why not seven instead, since you can divide six by three and two?
My main question is however; why do we have ten different digits?
