How do you change from base 10 to base 5? - Answers

To convert a number from base 10 to base 5, repeatedly divide the number by 5 and record the remainders. Start with the original number, divide it by 5, and note the remainder; this remainder is the least significant digit in base 5. Continue dividing the quotient by 5 until the quotient reaches zero, then read the remainders in reverse order to get the base 5 representation. For example, to convert 25 to base 5, you would divide it by 5 to get 5 (remainder 0), then divide 5 by 5 to get 1 (remainder 0), and finally divide 1 by 5 to get 0 (remainder 1), resulting in 100 in base 5.
