To convert to base 3 from base 10, the easiest way it to make a conversion table. In base 3, only 3 numbers can be used, for example, 0,1 and 2. So for the conversion table, up the top write 1(3^0) 3(3^1) 9(3^2) 27(3^3) 81(3^4) 243(3^5) 729 (3^6). You may need to go higher depending how you base 10 number. Now to convert start at the highest that goes into your number. For example, if you are converting 279, does 243 go into 279? Yes, 1 so put a one under it and subtract the difference which equals 36. Does 81 go into 36? No so just put a zero under it. Does 27 go into 36? Yes so put a 1 under it, and subtract the difference which equals 9. Does 9 go into 9? Yes so put a 1 under the box, and because you ran out put zeros under the 3 and 1. Now your number should be 101100 which is in base 3 and equals 279 in base 10.

How do you multiply 4 times 35 in base 6?

I would convert to base 10 , multiply and then convert back to base 6. 35 base 6 is 3 * 6 + 5 = 23 in base ten. 4 * 23 = 92 which is 2*36 + 3* 6 + 2 , in base 6 , the answer is 232 .


How do you convert 43 base 5 to base 10?

Okay - 43 in base five to base ten... The number 3 is easy - that stays the same. The number 4 is '5x4' which is 20. Add that to the 3 and you get 23. In base five - starting from the digit farthest right, every digit to the left, is five times the previous one.

How do you convert numbers into decimals?

1. You have to know the base of the original number. 2. If the base of the original number is base 10, then you don't need to convert it to decimal because the original number is already a decimal number. This means the decimal numbering system is base 10 (i.e. it has 10 base digits-->0-9) 3. If the base of the original number is different than base 10, then you will need to use a mathematical conversion method (or a computer program/calculator) to convert the original number to decimal. For example: If the original number 1011 is a base 2 (binary) number, then you would use the following conversion method to convert it from base 2 to base 10: 1 * 2^0 = 1 * 1 = 1 1 * 2^1 = 1 * 2 = 2 0 * 2^2 = 0 * 4 = 0 1 * 2^3 = 1 * 8 = 8 Now add the right most column of numbers together (e.g.: 1+2+0+8=11). 11 is the decimal (base 10) equivalent to the original base 2 number 1011. Similar methods can be used to convert from other base numbering systems to decimal (e.g. base 5 to base 10)


What is 3210 base 4 plus 210 base 3 plus 10 base 2 in base 10?

Convert each value to base10 & then sum In base4 the places are 1, 4, 16, 64 So 3210 base4 = 3*64 + 2*16 + 1*4 = 228 In base 3 the places are 1, 3, 9,27 So 210 base 3 is 2*9 + 1*3 = 21 In base 2 the places are 1,2,4,8 So 10 base 2 = 1 * 2 = 2 So 228 + 21 + 2 = 251
