In base 8 there are 8 digits (0 to 7 inclusive) and each digit in a number is a multiple of a power of 8. I'm not sure if you are including 0 as a counting number so here is 0 to 10 (with base 10 (decimal) on the left, base 8 on the right). 0 = 0 1 = 1 2 = 2 3 = 3 4 = 4 5 = 5 6 = 6 7 = 7 8 = 10 9 = 11 10 = 12
71 is greater.
