Question 1192371: MAT 145: Topics In Contemporary Math
Operations in Bases
Find each of the following. Be careful which base the work is done in!
2) 321(6) + 1255(6)
3) 143(5) + 432(5)
4) 3145(7) + 216(7)
5) 4344(9) + 2313(9)
6) 143(5) − 34(5)
7) 9327(11) − 7318(11)
8) 6323(7) − 415(7)
9) 11100100(2) − 11111(2)
10) 11100100(4) − 12321(4)

I'll do no. 2 for you, you should then be able to do the rest.
2) 321(6) + 1255(6)
Step by step:
5+1 = 6 = 0(6) with a 1 carried:
1
1255
321
----
0

1+5+2 = 8 = 2(6) with a 1 carried:
1
1255
321
----
20

1+3+2 = 6 = 0(6) with a 1 carried:
1
1255
321
----
020
1+1 = 2 = 2(6):
1255
321
----
2020(6)

Check: 321(6) = 3*6^2+2*6+1 = 121(10)
1255(6) = 1*6^3+2*6^2+5*6+5 = 323(10)

121(10)+323(10) = 444(10)
2020(6) = 2*6^3 + 2*6 = 432 + 12 = 444(10) (ok)
