3.703x10^3

(3703)

 

3700. Actually guys that's Base 2.

 

Binary 1's 0's base 2

I don't know what the heck your trying to say but...

Base two is binary...

 

Math Lesson for Today:

Base 10 numbers consist of 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9

Base 2 numbers (binary) consist of 0,1

Notice how the maxium number you will use for signifying a Base x number is x-1.

 

Base 2 numbers go from 0-1 because once you've reached 2 the number is at the next level which means carry the 1 to the 10 position

 

Ex:

If I do 4+5 in binary that is:

100(4)+101(5)=1001(9)

Notice how I add the two ones then carry the 1 to the next left most place.

This is why base 2 is binary.

 

If I do 512 in base 2 (binary) that is 2^9 which is 1000000000 (1 followed by 9 zeros) strictly speaking this is 1x2^9+1x0^8+1x0^7... and so on

 

Going by what we've now learned we can say that my first number was base 2/binary 111001110000 which is (1x2^11)(+1x2^10)(+1x2^9)(+1x2^6)(+1x2^5)(+1x2^4) which equals 2048+1024+512+128+64+32+16 which equals 3696.

 

My second number was base 3.
