Number System Types
In mathematics, there are several different types of number systems. The following are the four most popular number systems:System of decimal numbers (Base- 10)
System of binary numbers (Base- 2)
System of octal numbers (Base-8)
System of hexadecimal numbers (Base- 16)
Let us now look at some instances of different sorts of number systems.
System of decimal numbers
Because it employs ten digits from 0 to 9, the decimal number system has a base of ten. The locations to the left of the decimal point denote units, tens, hundreds, thousands, and so on in the decimal number system. This system uses decimal numbers to represent itself. Every position demonstrates the base's unique power (10).The following is an example of a decimal number system:
The decimal number 1457 has seven digits in the units place, five in the tens place, four in the hundreds place, and one in the thousands place, and its value may be represented as
(1×103) + (4×102) + (5×101) + (7×100)
(1×1000) + (4×100) + (5×10) + (7×1)
1000 + 400 + 50 + 7
1457
System of binary numbers
Only two binary digits, 0 and 1, exist in the base 2 number system, often known as the Binary number system. A radix of 2 is the standard base-2 radix. Binary numbers, which are a mix of 0 and 1, are the figures specified by this system. 110101, for example, is a binary number.Any system may be converted to binary and vice versa.
System of octal numbers
The octal number system has an eight-digit basis and employs digits ranging from 0 to seven to denote numbers. In computer applications, octal numerals are often employed. The process of converting an octal number to decimal is the same as decimal conversion and is demonstrated with an example below.Example: Convert 2158 into decimal.
Solution:
2158 = 2 × 82 + 1 × 81 + 5 × 80
= 2 × 64 + 1 × 8 + 5 × 1
= 128 + 8 + 5
= 14110
System of hexadecimal numbers
Base 16 is used to write or represent numbers in the hexadecimal format. The numbers in the hex system are first represented in the same way as they are in the decimal system, i.e. from 0 to 9. The numerals are then represented using the alphabets A through F. The table below demonstrates how numbers are represented in the hexadecimal number system.Questions And Answers

Question 12:
How many two digit numbers are divisible by 3 but not by 7 ?
Option 1: 13
Option 2: 26
Option 3: 30
Option 4: 8
Answer:
2: 26
Explanation:
Two digit numbers divisible by 3 are : 12, 15, 18, ......., 96, 99
The above series follows an A.P. with first term a= 12 , common difference d = 3 and last term l=99. Let number of terms be n
l=a+(n−1)d
12+(n−1)(3)=99
(n−1)×3=99−12=87
n−1=87/3 = 29
n=29+1=30
Similarly, two digit numbers divisible by L.C.M. (3,7) = 21 are : 21, 42, 63, 84 = 4 numbers Two digit numbers are divisible by 3 but not by 7 = 30−4=26

Option 1: 6
Option 2: 4
Option 3: 8
Option 4: 9
Answer:
3: 8
Explanation:
When a number is divisible by 11, then sum of numbers at even place - sum of numbers at odd place = 0 or
divisible by 11.
( x + x + 1 ) - ( 1+ 5 + 0 ) = 11
⇒ 2x - 5 = 11
∴ x = 8
What are the different types of number system ?
The following are the four most popular number systems:System of decimal numbers (Base- 10)
System of binary numbers (Base- 2)
System of octal numbers (Base-8)
System of hexadecimal numbers (Base- 16)
How do you explain number system?
A number system is defined as the representation of numbers by using digits or other symbols in a consistent manner. The value of any digit in a number can be determined by a digit, its position in the number, and the base of the number system
Who created the number system?
The Babylonians got their number system from the Sumerians, the first people in the world to develop a counting system
Who used numbers first?
Numbers, and counting, began about 4,000 BC in Sumeria, one of the earliest civilizations. With so many people, livestock, crops and artisan goods located in the same place, cities needed a way to organize and keep track of it all, as it was used up, added to or traded.
Who discovered zero as a number?
The first recorded zero appeared in Mesopotamia around 3 B.C. The Mayans invented it independently circa 4 A.D. It was later devised in India in the mid-fifth century, spread to Cambodia near the end of the seventh century, and into China and the Islamic countries at the end of the eighth
