If the question is, "What is the equivalent number to the base 5 of the decimal number 50? The answer is 200 (2 x 52) + (0 x 5) + (0 x 1) = 2 x 25 = 50
Each bar represents 5 and a dot represent 1
Since 52 = 25, and twice 25 is 50, the answer is 200.
50
Not in a way that would be generally understood. However, it is possible. An 8-digit number in base 10 can be represented by a 5-digit number in base 32. For example, extending the scheme for labeling digits for base 32, VVVVV32 = 3355443110 Similarly, the 8-digit number 33333333 in base 4 is the 5-digit number 65535 in base 10
An exponent. For example: 53 5 is the base number and the little 3 above the five is an exponent. Exponents represent the number of times the base value is multiplied by itself. So the above example shows that 5 is multiplied by itself 3 times: 5 x 5 x 5 = 53 = 125.
M = 1000 C = 500 X = 10 L = 50 V = 5 I = 1 (but the trick is if they have a smaller number before a bigger number, such as 'XL' it reads 10, 50, but it actually means 50-10) So the answer would be, 1948 :)
50 = 2 * 5 * 5
1, 2, 5 and 10
base 5
L=50, X=10, V=5, I=1, so 50+10+5+1=66.
It is worth 50.
