Decimal
There is no smallest number, in any base.
It is 15 in base 10.
10 base 6 equals 6 base 10
Assuming the original number is written in base 10, there is no need to convert this to base 10 as it is already there. The hexadecimal number represented as 601 in base 16 is represented in decimal as 1537.
The US system that is based on the number 10 is the base 10 system. In the base 10 system the numbers roll over every 10; example 10,20,30.
The base of our number system is 10. However there are mathematical methods of converting bases to 2 , 5 ...e.t.c.
10
The number 10 is the value of the base itself. So tyhe answer is the smallest base. If integer, then 2 otherwise any number greater than 1.

Decimal is used to describe a number that has 10 as it's base. We cannot know for sure which base a number was written in, but if the base is not specified, we usually assume the base to be 10. So yes, this number is probably decimal.
27 = 102 base 5 Base 10: 27 = 2 x 10 + 7 = 27 Base 5: 102 = 1 x 25 + 0 + 2 = 27
