Binary, decimal and hexadecimal converting

Given an ( a 1 a 2 a 3 ) 10 (\overline{a_1a_2a_3\cdots})_{10} 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 (\overline{b_1b_2b_3\cdots})_2 and after that this whole binary number to a hexadecimal number ( c 1 c 2 c 3 ) 16 (\overline{c_1c_2c_3\cdots})_{16} , then: a n = c n a_n=c_n for every n n ?

Note: When you convert from decimal to binary every b n 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 a_3=4 , then b 3 = 0100 b_3=0100 .

Example: ( 24 ) 10 ( 00100100 ) 2 ( 24 ) 16 (24)_{10}\rightarrow (00100100)_2 \rightarrow (24)_{16}

Yes, it is true No, it is not false

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 ) 16 (\overline{m_1m_2m_3\cdots m_{4n}})_2\rightarrow (\overline{k_1k_2k_3\cdots k_n})_{16} , where m n m_n is only one digit, then we can convert 4 digits at a time from the end of the number, because 2 4 = 16 2^4=16 . 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 \overline{m_{4n-3}m_{4n-2}m_{4n-1}m_{4n}} is 2 3 + 2 2 + 2 1 + 2 0 = 15 2^3+2^2+2^1+2^0=15 , so m 4 n 3 m 4 n 2 m 4 n 1 m 4 n \overline{m_{4n-3}m_{4n-2}m_{4n-1}m_{4n}} can influence only the last digit of the hexadecimal number.

@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.

@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

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.
