Numeral system is a system for expressing numbers; that is, a mathematical notation for representing numbers of a given set, using digits or other symbols in a consistent manner. The same sequence of symbols may represent different numbers in different numeral systems.

For example:

2356:-

We start from left

6 = 6*10⁰ = 6*1 = 6

5 = 5*10¹ = 5*10 = 50

3 = 3*10² = 3*100 = 300

2 = 2*10³ = 2*1000 = 2000

Similarly,

Given number is 4256

6 = 6*10⁰ = 6*1 = 6

5 = 5*10¹ = 5*10 = 50

2 = 2*10² = 2*100 = 200

Answer 2
