Question

How do I write number in expanded form that are in different base?

Donagan

Top Answerer

Here's an example. The base-8 number 4,321 is expanded like this: (4 x 512) + (3 x 64) + (2 x 8) + (1 x 1). (In base-10 that's 2048 + 192 + 16 + 1 = 2257.)

Question

What’s the expanded form for 500.000?

Donagan

Top Answerer

Because there is a specificity implied in the use of the zeroes after the decimal point, you should write the expansion this way: (5 x 100) + (0 x 10) + (0 x 1) + (0 x .1) + (0 x .01) + (0 x .001).
