I occassionally get tripped up by handwriting where 4=9 and 7=1, but I think the messy / is a scratchmark.

:rolleyes:

9=4 in base 5.
7=1 in base 3 or 6.
After just taking exception to Otis' post (in here) I'm loth to disagree with yet another member of the 'Elite' in here but, surely:
9 = 14 in base 5
and
7 = 21 in base 3 and 11 in base 6?

Or is this yet another 'American' convention I'm not familiar with?
(Or am I missing a joke here? lol)


There are 10 kinds of people who understand number bases like Binary: those who do and those who don't! ?
