How to convert base two to base three​

Consider this example: say we want to convert <em>x</em> = 11 0101 1001₂ to base 3.

The binary expansion of <em>x</em> is

<em>x</em> = 1×2⁹ + 1×2⁸ + 1×2⁶ + 1×2⁴ + 1×2³ + 1×2⁰

which in base 10 reduces to

<em>x</em> = 512 + 256 + 64 + 16 + 8 + 1 = 857

Recall the first several powers of 3:

3⁰ = 1; 3¹ = 3; 3² = 9; 3³ = 27; 3⁴ = 81; 3⁵ = 243; 3⁶ = 729

Now it's a matter of computing quotients and remainders. Pick the largest power of 3 that fits into the target number, then check the remainder and repeat.

• How many times does the 729 go into 857? 1 time, and it leaves a remainder of 128, or

857 = 1×729 + 128 = 1×3⁶ + 128

• How many times does 81 go into 128? Also 1 time, so

128 = 1×81 + 47 = 1×3⁴ + 47

• How many times does 27 go into 47? Also 1 time,

47 = 1×27 + 20 = 1×3³ + 20

• How many times does 9 go into 20? 2 times,

20 = 18 + 2 = 2×9 + 2 = 2×3² + 2

• How many times does 1 go into 2? Also 2 times,

2 = 2 + 1 = 2×1 + 0 = 2×3⁰

So we found

857 = 1×3⁶ + 1×3⁴ + 1×3³ + 2×3² + 2×3⁰

which is the ternary expansion of <em>x</em>,

<em>x</em> = 1 011 202₃

Since 4^2=sqrt(16), we can rewrite it as that. In addition, as 2 is a factor of 16, we can rewrite it as sqrt(2)*sqrt(16/2)=sqrt(2)*sqrt(8). Crossing out the sqrt(2), we get sqrt(8) as our answer. To simplify it, we can note that 2^2=4 and 4 is a factor of 8 when multiplied by 2, so we get 2*sqrt(2)

There are 70 historical fiction books in the school library. Historical fiction books make up 1/10 of the library's collection.
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

There are 700 books in Library Collections.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of historical books = 70

The equation used to find the totals number of books in library collection.

\frac{1}{10}b = 70

where b⇒ Total number of books in library collections.

We need to find the Total number of books in library collections.

Solution:

\frac{1}{10}b = 70

Now by solving the above equation we get;

First we will multiply both side by 10 we get;

\frac{1}{10}b \times 10= 70\times 10\\\\b =700

Hence there are 700 books in Library Collections.
