Other Ways to Solve

Base conversion

Step-by-step explanation

1. Parse base conversion function input

(ECE)16=base10

Identify the source number, source base, and target base before converting through base 10.

2. Convert source to base 10

(ECE)16

Expand digits with place-value powers in the source base.

14162+12161+14160

Sum the expanded terms to obtain the base-10 value.

3790

Expand each digit by place value: 14·162
+ 12·161
+ 14·160. This gives 3,790 in base 10.

3. Conclude target-base conversion

3790(base10)

Use repeated division by the target base.

379010

Record quotient and remainder for this division cycle.

3790=10379+0

Record quotient and remainder for this division cycle.

379=1037+9

Record quotient and remainder for this division cycle.

37=103+7

Record quotient and remainder for this division cycle.

3=100+3

Read remainders from last to first to form target-base digits.

3790

Final converted representation in the target base.

(3790)10

Repeatedly divide 3,790 by 10, collect remainders, and read them in reverse to get 3,790.
