  • I see more advantage to using base 12 than base 10. First of all, 12 has more factors than 10. 2nd, the prime factors of 12 are 2 and 3 so you could divide the following without having a repeating radix (max 50): 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 16, 24, 32, 36, 48. That is 12 numbers with maximum 50. The same thing with 10 (max 50): 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 25, 32, 40, 50. That's only 11 numbers. Now the same thing with 12 - the same thing with 10: 3, 6, 9, 12, 24, 36, 48. Do you see why base 12 is better?

  • @0501701 Divide the base number repeatedly until the quotient is 0 (it is EXTREMELY important to include remainders). For example: 9 divided by 8 equals 1 r1 so take the remainder "1" to the rightmost coloumn. So far we have 1. There can only be one remainder so ignore the remainder and keep dividing. 1 divided by 8 equals 0 r1 so do this again but to the next rightmost coloumn and we get 11.

  • @Passivity211 Yes

  • this shit is useless

  • Nine is not used in Octal numeric system

  • how would we convert 9 from octal to decimal?
