Question

The product of two numbers is 16.578. If one of them is 5.4, what is the other number?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

It seems you are using a number system with at least 6 digits. Let us assume the numbers are in base n .

We try to solve.

x×y=15n

x=5n

Let us rewrite this (in base 10 ):

x×y=n+5

x=5

Now it is easy to obtain the result:

5y=n+5

⇒y=n5+1,n≥6

Assuming you are using base 6 : y=2.2

Assuming you are using base 7 : y=2.4

Assuming you are using base 8 : y=2.6

Assuming you are using base 9 : y=2.8

Assuming you are using base 10 : y=3.0

Assuming you are using base 11 : y=3.2

Assuming you are using base 12 : y=3.4

Assuming you are using base 13 : y=3.6

…

Assuming you are using base 205 : y=42

As we can see, the base is of course 205 , and the solution (like always…) 42;-)

Therefore, the complete equation is:

5205×4210=15205
