if 543 - 255=244 are all in base x so find x
\n" ); document.write( "255 + 244 = 543
\n" ); document.write( "5 + 4 = 9
\n" ); document.write( "9 modulo base = 3
\n" ); document.write( "--> base = 6
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------
\n" ); document.write( "255 base 6 = 2*36 + 5*6 + 5 = 107
\n" ); document.write( "244 base 6 = 2*36 + 4*6 + 4 = 100
\n" ); document.write( "543 base 6 = 5*36 + 4*6 + 3 = 207
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
