Best Answer

Divide the number by 5, and the remainder in that division is the 'ones' (50) digit. Take that quotient (without the remainder) and divide by 5. The remainder is the 'fives' (51) digit. Continue dividing until you have zero, with a remainder and that will be the leftmost digit.

Example 27 (base ten) to base 5:

27 / 5 = 5, remainder 2

5 / 5 = 1, remainder 0

1 / 5 = 0, remainder 1

so 102 (base 5) is the same as 27 (base 10). You can check: 1 is in the (52=25) place, and the 2 is in the 'ones' place.

So (1*25) + (0*5) + (2*1) = 27

What is 43 base five 24 base 5?

To add two numbers in different bases, we first convert them to the same base. In this case, we convert 43 base 5 to base 10, which is 23. Then we convert 24 base 5 to base 10, which is 14. Adding 23 and 14 in base 10 gives us 37. Finally, we convert 37 back to base 5, which is 112. So, 43 base 5 plus 24 base 5 equals 112 base 5.


How do you convert 43 base 5 to base 10?

To convert a number from base 5 to base 10, you multiply each digit by 5 raised to the power of its position from the right, starting at 0. In this case, for the number 43 base 5, you would calculate (4 * 5^1) + (3 * 5^0) = (4 * 5) + (3 * 1) = 20 + 3 = 23 base 10. Thus, 43 base 5 is equal to 23 base 10.
