No this would not work. In a base number system, each place value position is a multiple of the previous one by a factor of the base [ for example: 100, 10, 1, 0.1, etc. in the decimal or 10 system].

If there was a one-base system, then each place value would be multiplied (or divided by) one: [1, 1, 1, 1, ....]. Also, in a number system: there are the same number of digits as the base [in base 10, we have 0-9 which is ten digits]. The highest digit is one less than the base. So for base one you would have 1 digit, which would be 0.

What is a number system?

number systems use different bases. If a number only uses 5 symbols, then it is in base 5 The number system we use is base 10, because we have 10 symbols: 0123456789 so the number 1289 = 9x10^0 + 8x10^1+2x10^2+1x10^3 If it were in another base n, then converted to base ten abcd = dxn^0 + cxn^1+bxn^2+axn^3 A number system some may be familiar with is binary, which has a number base 2 since it only has 2 symbols, 1 and 0 In other number systems, the symbols can be different, such as in Babylonion, or other languages.

It means convert the value of 12 from a number system based on 10 (our usual counting system) to a number system based on 5. In base 5 you would count to 12 this way: 1 2 3 4 10 11 12 13 14 20 21 22 Perhaps you have been learning a conversion formula. That should give you the same answer.
