If you are familiar with converting numbers to binary it works the same only using 6. The trick is to divide the number by six, write down the remainder, and keep the quotient. Repeat that until the quotient reaches zero. Then, take the remainders you've written down, and reverse their order. That will give you the number in the base to which you're converting.

In the case of converting 200 into base six notation, you would do the following:

200 divided by 6 equals 22, with a remainder of 2

22 divided by 6 equals 3, with a remainder of 3

5 divided by six equals 0, with a remainder of 5

Now we can take the remainders and read them in the reverse order that we wrote them in: 532. That is our value expressed in base six.
