SCALES OF NOTATION 57 we have, following the plan of the first formula, 4 X ¥3 = 14443 L 606 axXY 156 8 11 Hence 4398(f) = 15552(7) Or, using the second formula, we may proceed as follows: 4(7) X 13 15 4 55 + 3 61 X 13 243 61 3 1153 -+~ %2 1165 X 13 3561 1165 15541 + 11 15552(7) i The third method is that of the rule given in § 102. Suppose that the radix of the new notation is #’ and that the new digits, which we are searching for, are a,’, a,—/, - - -, a), a/, ay'.
