If you mean base 5"
= 1*5^2 + 3*5^1 + 4
= 25 + 15 + 4
= 44

Here is a short algorithm for converting from another base to base 10:

(1) start with the first (leftmost) digit
(2) multiply by the base and add the next digit
(3) repeat step (2) until all digits have been used

A: 134 base 5 to base 10:

1*5 = 5; 5+3 = 8
8*5 = 40; 40+4 = 44

B: 11110 base 2 to base 5:

1*2 = 2; 2+1 = 3
3*2 = 6; 6+1 = 7
7*2 = 14; 14+1 = 15
15*2 = 30; 30+0 = 30

C: 83B base 12 to base 10 (in bases greater than 10, the digits after 9 are A, B, C, .... Use A and B instead of T and E for "digits" 10 and 11):

8*12 = 96; 96+3 = 99
99*12 = 1188; 1188+11 = 1199
