It's very very very good for people who are stuck or want to answer....I use the calculator for my math also!
Yeah here is a question I got....very good try to solve it
What are the first 10 digits after the decimal point (technically the hexadecimal point...) when the fraction 1/7 is written in base 16?
(Express your answer as a ten digit number. You do not need to include the subscript to indicate the base.)
:) I think I know the answer.
Convert 1/7 into a hexadecimal number and give the first 10 digits:
1st Multiplication Iteration: 1/7 x 16 = 16/7 , Fractional Part = 2/7, Carry = 2
2nd M. I. : 2/7 x 16 = 32/7 , Fractional Part = 4/7, Carry = 4
3rd M. I. : 4/7 x 16 = 64/7, Fractional Part = 1/7, Carry = 9
4th M.I. : 1/7 x 16 = 16/7 <----- You see it is repeating....... The hexadecimal fraction have the same nature as the decimal fraction.......
1/7 in hexadecimal system = 0.2492492492.........
First 10 digits.
