Evaluate (73)8
To evaluate (73)8, we need to convert the number to its decimal equivalent. In base 8, the digit 7 represents the value 7 and the digit 3 represents the value 3.
To convert from base 8 to decimal, we use the following formula:
(decimal equivalent) = (digit 1) x (base)^(position 1) + (digit 2) x (base)^(position 2) + ...
So for (73)8, the decimal equivalent is:
(7 x 8^1) + (3 x 8^0)
= (7 x 8) + 3
= 56 + 3
= 59
Therefore, (73)8 is equal to 59 in decimal.
