Homework Statement
1. Convert (0.333...)4to base 10.
2. Convert (0.333...)10to base 4.
Homework Equations
For question 1:
I see this can be written as (3/4+3/42+3/43...)10
Can I just use the geometric formula and arrive at the answer 12/3=4 ?
But that doesn't match, because 4 in base 10, written in base 4 is just 10.
For problem 2 I'm not sure how to start. There was a trick regarding division and keeping the remainder, but I'm not sure that applies to decimals.
