Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. We are performing operations in different bases (base five and base six). . The operations include multiplication and addition.

STEP 2

For the first operation, we need to convert the numbers from base five to base ten. The number 31five 31_{\text {five }} is converted as follows31five =×51+1×5031_{\text {five }} = \times5^1 +1 \times5^0

STEP 3

Calculate the value of 31five 31_{\text {five }} in base ten.
31five =3×5+1×1=15+1=1631_{\text {five }} =3 \times5 +1 \times1 =15 +1 =16

STEP 4

Similarly, convert 3five 3_{\text {five }} from base five to base ten.
3five =3×03_{\text {five }} =3 \times^0

STEP 5

Calculate the value of 3five 3_{\text {five }} in base ten.
3five =3×1=33_{\text {five }} =3 \times1 =3

STEP 6

Now, perform the multiplication operation in base ten.
16×3=4816 \times3 =48

STEP 7

Convert the result back to base five. To do this, divide48 by5 and keep track of the remainders.
48÷5=9 remainder 348 \div5 =9 \text{ remainder }3

STEP 8

Then divide the quotient by5 again and keep track of the remainder.
÷5=1 remainder 4 \div5 =1 \text{ remainder }4

STEP 9

Finally, divide the last quotient by5.
÷5= remainder  \div5 = \text{ remainder }

STEP 10

The remainders in reverse order give the result in base five.
48ten =143five 48_{\text {ten }} =143_{\text {five }}So, 31five 3five =143five 31_{\text {five }} \cdot3_{\text {five }} =143_{\text {five }}.
