Question

b) Convert 101, into denary number​

Answer 1

If 101 is given in base b, then in base 10 you have

$101_b = 1\times b^2 + 0\times b^1 + 1\times b^0 = b^2 + 1$

For instance, if b = 2, then

101₂ = 2² + 1 = 5₁₀

If b = 3, then

101₃ = 3² + 1 = 9₁₀

If b = 4, then

101₄ = 4² + 1 = 17₁₀

The answer depends entirely on the base of the given number.
