imagine that u r part of a culture that uses onli 3 symbols to count: x,c,a. using those 3 symbols as an aid design a number system that allows you to express any whole number from 0-26 using no more than three symbols for each number
I need help counting from 0-26 using onli 3 symbols like x, c, a without exceeding more than 3 symbols per num
x:2
c:1
a:0
three digits: _*9 _*3 _*1
for example: cxa=1*9+2*3+0*1=15
xxx=2*9+2*3+2*1= 26
a=0, c=1, x=2
In other words, this is a base 3 number system.
You can use this system to express 0-26.

xa
