Use this result to work out: 143 + 162 + 181 + 200 + 219 + 238 + 257 = 1400 1380 1350 1280 1300 None Use this approach to work out the sum of the numbers 2, 6, 10, 14, 18 and so on, as far as 58 (including the number 58). 450 435 360 500 400 None 28. In ordinary arithmetic, numbers are given in base 10 which means that for a number written as 469 there are 4 hundreds, 6 tens and 9 units so that 469 = 4 x 100 + 6 x 10 + 9 x 1 In base 5, only the digits 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4 are used. Instead of the columns representing hundreds, tens and units they now indicate how many twenty-fives, fives and units there are so the number 324 in base 5, represents 3 twenty-fives, 2 fives and 4 units so that 324 (base 5) = 3 x 25 + 2 x 5 + 4 x 1 = 75 + 10 + 4 = 89 (base 10)Use this process to convert the numbers 13 and 341, both given in base 5, into base 10:13 (base 5) = ------- (base 10) 341 (base 5) =--------(base 10) 13(base 5) = 8(base10) & 341(base5) = 96(base 10) 13(base 5) = 9(base10) & 341(base5) = 94(base 10) 13(base 5) = 6(base10) & 341(base5) = 92(base 10) 13(base 5) = 5(base10) & 341(base5) = 90(base 10) None of the above None It is possible to work backwards converting a number from base 10 to base 5.As an example, to convert 73 from base 10 to base 5 you could write: 73 = 50 + 20 + 3 = 2 x 25 + 4 x 5 + 3 x 1 so in base 5 the number would be written as 243.Use this process to convert the numbers 17 and 109, both given in base 10, into base 5:17 (base 10) = --------(base 5) 109 (base 10) = --------- (base 5) 17(base10) =32(base 5) & 109(base10) =414(base5) 17(base10) = 30(base 5) & 109(base10) =415(base5) 17(base10) = 28 (base 5) & 109(base10) =410(base5) 17(base10) = 35 (base 5) & 109(base10) =416(base5) None of the above None 29. The table below shows the prices of a week’s holiday at four hotels in Orlando Florida during October this year. The prices are per person and a reduction is offered for children aged 2 to 16 years old. The prices include the cost of the flight and accommodation. Infants under 2 years old travel free. There is an option to buy tickets to the theme parks. Infants have free entry. For example, if a family consisting of two adults and one child (aged 9) stay for a week at the Little Rodent Hotel the total cost of the holiday, including a rover theme park ticket for everyone, would be: 2 x 1320 + 780 + 2 x 320 + 240 = £4300HotelCost per adultCost per childAdult Rover TicketChild Rover TicketLittle Rodent£1320£780£320£240South Seas£1450£850£320£240Holiday Mill£1550£900£320£240Portomento Bay£2050£1040£320£240 None Work out the total cost for a family consisting of two adults and three children (aged 9, 6 and 1) to stay at the Holiday Mill for a week, including the cost of rover theme park tickets. £ 6020 £ 5380 £ 5500 £ 4220 £ 6050 None A family consisting of just one adult and a child (aged 11) decide to spend a week in Orlando.
