R2434 base 6 is divided by 42 base 6?

Solution

Let 2434 base 6=Y & 42 base 6=Z

Y=(2 x 6^3) + (4 x 6^2) + (3 x 6^1) + (4 x 6^0)

Y=(2 x 216) + (4 x 36) + (3 x 6) + (4 x 1)

Y=432 + 144 + 18 +4

Y=598

Z= 42 base 6

Z=(4 x 6^1) + (2 x 6^0)

Z=(4 x 6) + (2 x 1)

Z=24 + 2

Z=26

.: Y/Z

=598/26

=23 base 6

.: 2432 base 6 divide by 42 base 6 is 23 base 6

6 | 23

6 | 3r5

| 0r3

so u countin 4rm down and dats 35

2x6^3+4x6^2+3x6^1+4x6^0

=2x216+4x36+18+4.

=432+144+18+4

=598.

=>42base6. 4x6+2x0=26. 598/26=23.

=>23/6=35base6

2434 base 6 is divided by 42 base 6?

Solution

Let 2434 base 6=Y & 42 base 6=Z



Y=(2 x 6^3) + (4 x 6^2) + (3 x 6^1) + (4 x 6^0)



Y=(2 x 216) + (4 x 36) + (3 x 6) + (4 x 1)



Y=432 + 144 + 18 +4

Y=598



Z= 42 base 6

Z=(4 x 6^1) + (2 x 6^0)

Z=(4 x 6) + (2 x 1)

Z=24 + 2

Z=26

.: Y/Z

=598/26

=23 base 6

.: 2432 base 6 divide by 42 base 6 is 23 base 6

(Hint) -> CONVERTING TO BASE10

1st step- pick each of the numbers given by multiplying it by the given.

2nd step- start from the last on your right by giving the ^power starting from (0 1 2 3......till it get to the left end where you find none to be given.

[here]->

2434base6 = (2*6)^3 + (4*6)^2 + (3*6)^1 + (4*6)^0

= (2*216) + (4*36) + (3*6) + (4*1)

= 432 + 144 + 18 + 4

= 598base6



42base6 = (4*6)^1 + (2*6)^0

= (4*6) + (2*1)

= 24 + 2

=26base6



now 2434base6 = 598 & 42base6 = 26. divide ( 598/26 = 23base6 )



NOTE: you were solving in base 10 not 6,you need to convert back to base 6.

[here]-> 23base6 = 23/6 (not just a division)

(use tabular form)

- 6 in 23 = 3 Remainder 5

- 6 in 3 is impossible then put down the 3

then point your arrow up from 3 to 5 upwards.

that's -> 35 (ans)

look I will continue from ifechuks solving after u have divide 598/26=23 to arrive at the perfect and u convert to from base ten to six like 23/6=3r5 while3/6=0r3 u are expected to pic only remender from below link r3 and r5 making 35 base 6

in converting your answer back to base 6, why do you use 6 in dividing when there are small numbers that can divide it and why dividing using six,how do you get 6 into 3 and it will give you 0 R 3 ,can I get an explanation

R2434 base 6 is divided by 42 base 6?

Solution

Let 2434 base 6=Y & 42 base 6=Z



Y=(2 x 6^3) + (4 x 6^2) + (3 x 6^1) + (4 x 6^0)



Y=(2 x 216) + (4 x 36) + (3 x 6) + (4 x 1)



Y=432 + 144 + 18 +4

Y=598



Z= 42 base 6

Z=(4 x 6^1) + (2 x 6^0)

Z=(4 x 6) + (2 x 1)

Z=24 + 2

Z=26

.: Y/Z

=598/26

=23 base 6

.: 2432 base 6 divide by 42 base 6 is 23 base 6
