Question

-3224 base 5 -3434 base 5

Answer 1

I guess you're asking to compute the difference,

-3224₅ - 3434₅

Ignore the minus signs for now, and consider the sum

3224₅ + 3434₅

In the 5⁰ place (the rightmost digit) we have

4₅ + 4₅ = 8 = 13₅

Carry the 1 to the next place. In the 5¹ place,

2₅ + 3₅ + 1₅ = 6 = 11₅

Carry the 1. In the 5² place,

2₅ + 4₅ + 1₅ = 7 = 12₅

Carry the 1. In the 5³ place,

3₅ + 3₅ + 1₅ = 7 = 12₅

So,

3224₅ + 3434₅ = 12213₅

and hence

-3224₅ - 3434₅ = -12213₅
