Question

Express 230 base m interm of m and state the factors of 230 base m

Answer 1

We have the number:

`230_m`

This can be expressed in terms of "m" using the rule:

`230_m=2\cdot m^2+3\cdot m^1+0\cdot m^0=2m^2+3m`

The factors are:

`\begin{gathered} 2m^2+3m=m(2m+3) \\ \text{Factor 1}\colon m \\ \text{Factor 2}\colon2m+3 \end{gathered}`
