0, 1, 2, 10, 11, 12, 20, 21, 22, 100, 101, 102, 110, 111, 112
The sum of the first 5 numbers is 15. 1+2+3+4+5=15
They are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 and 16.
Given that counting numbers are non-zero positive integers: 1, 2, 10, 11, 12, etc.... Youll need to work out what to do after 223, but use the decimal (base 10) system as your model. Remember that the actual base (in this case, 3) *does not* appear as a numeral.
You cannot find the first 15 prime numbers by dividing by 2 and 3. This method would not identify 25 as being a composite.
The first six triangular numbers are 1, 3, 6, 10, 15 and 21.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 20, 21...
0, 1, 2, 3, 10, 11, 12, 13, 20, 21, 22, 23, 30, 31, 32, 33
First five whole numbers are: 0 1 2 3 4
The numbers are 15 and 3. 15 * 3 = 45 15 + 3 = 18
The first twenty counting numbers in base eight are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 20, 21, 22, 23, and 24. In base eight, counting continues after 7 by adding a new digit, so 8 in decimal is represented as 10 in base eight. This pattern continues similarly for higher numbers.
They all relate by adding up the 6+6+3=15 You can not get to the sum of 15 is you don't have the first 3 numbers to add up.
