Write the number 112 in "expanded form."

The expanded form in any x ( x is an imteger) base system is like a polynomial in the form:


An*x^n+An-1x^(n-1)+An-2*x^(n-2)+An-3*x^(n-3)+......A2*x^2+A1*x+A0, where An , An-1, An-2, ....A2,A1 and A0 are the positive integral coefficients such that 0 <= Ar< x and  r is  an integer 1 to n.


You did not cite the base. So, we take first 10 base , the most popular a decimal system and then  one hundred and twelve converted in base 5   and its expansion in the powers of 5 and   the  number 112 in base 5 and its expansion.


Procedure:


(i)


112 in 10 base:


So the 112/10 = quotient 11+remainder 2.


Take the quotient 11 above and divide by 10 to get the quotient and remainder:


11/10= quotient 1+ remainder 1


Take the quotient 1 above and again divide to get quotient and remainder:


1/10 = quotient 0 + remainder 1


Procedure is to go till the quotient is 0.


112= 3rd remainder* 10^ (3-1)+(second remainder*10^(2-1)+first remaider*10^(1-1)'


Therefore, 112= 1*10^(3-1)+1*10^(2-1)+2*10^(1-1) or


112=1*10^2+1*10+2*10^0 or


112=1*10^2+1*10^1+2*10^0 0r


112=1*100+1*10+2.


(ii)


112 converted in 5 base:


112/5=quotient 22 +remainder 2


22/5= quotient 4 + remainder 2


4/5= quotient 0  remainder 4


Therefore 112 (one hundred and  five) in base 5 =  4*5^2+2*5+2.


(iii)


Now 112 in base 5 = 1*5^2+1*5+2
