How to convert the following numbers into their equivalents in base 10?
You need to know how the conversion works. In octal (base 8) every digit must be multiplied to power of 8, so:





362 (octal) = 3x8虏 + 6x8鹿 + 2x8^0 = 3x64 + 6x8 + 2x1 = 242





In base six, the power is 6:





423 (six) = 4x6虏 + 2x6鹿 + 3x6^0 = 4x36 + 2x6 + 3x1 = 159





and so on...
