Answer:
15) 54
16) 37
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is a repeating decimal of 13.888... round accordingly.
Set up the proportion 5/18 = x/50 18x=250 Solve for x
Base 10 has the ten digits: {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,7, 8, 9}
Base 11 has the digits: {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A} where A is treated as a single digit number
Base 12 has the digits {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B}
Base 13 has the digits: {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C}
Base 14 has the digits: {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D}
The digit D is the largest single digit of that last set. So the largest 3-digit base 14 integer is DDD which is the final answer
Note: It is similar to how 999 is the largest 3-digit base 10 integer
