Given an ( a 1 a 2 a 3 ⋯ ) 1 0 number.
Is it true that if you convert this number's every digit separately to a binary number ( b 1 b 2 b 3 ⋯ ) 2 and after that this whole binary number to a hexadecimal number ( c 1 c 2 c 3 ⋯ ) 1 6 , then: a n = c n for every n ?
Note: When you convert from decimal to binary every b n should be an exactly 4 digit number(if your number is less then 4 digit number, then write 0-s). For example if a 3 = 4 , then b 3 = 0 1 0 0 .
Example: ( 2 4 ) 1 0 → ( 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 0 ) 2 → ( 2 4 ) 1 6

@Brilliant Mathematics can you help me? Can you rewrite the task?
I know I can prove it , but I don't know how. :) (Also the earth isn't flat, its an oblate spheroid ). XD
Or geoid :)

Yes, or ellipsoid :)

No! Only geoid.

Are you questioning Google?

@A Former Brilliant Member – Yes. Without water. Bye!

@A Former Brilliant Member – The without water was a question :)

@A Former Brilliant Member – No, Geoid is without water, as the landscape of earth, including the seabed, ellipsoid is a irregular sphere

@A Former Brilliant Member – Hilarious! Bye!
I can't prove that, but the earth isn't flat. :)
You are wrong!!! :)
Is this an algebra problem? Or which topic? Help me!

I don't know, maybe Geography. :)
Logic should work, though.

Yeah but in algebra you should use logic too. I think algebra or number theory.

@A Former Brilliant Member – Yes, number theory would be better, I think.

The answer is when we converting from binary to hexadecimal, ( m 1 m 2 m 3 ⋯ m 4 n ) 2 → ( k 1 k 2 k 3 ⋯ k n ) 1 6 , where m n is only one digit, then we can convert 4 digits at a time from the end of the number, because 2 4 = 1 6 . So we just do the same thing back and forth, when we convert the number to binary and this number to hexadecimal.
Note: The max value of m 4 n − 3 m 4 n − 2 m 4 n − 1 m 4 n is 2 3 + 2 2 + 2 1 + 2 0 = 1 5 , so m 4 n − 3 m 4 n − 2 m 4 n − 1 m 4 n can influence only the last digit of the hexadecimal number.
