Question

write the greatest possible 3 digit number using 2 different numbers​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you haven’t mentioned the base of the number, the biggest 3 digit number in base b is (bbb).

Now the base can be infinity also.

For eg:

So if you take hexadecimal number system , the largest three digit number is will be (999) which is

16*16*9 + 16*9 + 9 = 2457

(and not FFF as ‘F’ is not a digit :D )

so in arbitrarily large base, the three “digit” number can be infinity.

Correction- in Base 10 we have 10 Digits to represent numbers (0 – 9) ,So in Base 16 we need 16 different Symbols to represent digits so that we can have numbers greater than 10 but smaller than 16 and other reasons. The Six extra digits are A,B,C,D,E, and F. So Yeah,F is a digit in hexadecimal and It's highest 3-Digit number is FFF and not 999

I hope this is help you..
