Explanation of Solution

Given information:

The given base is 12.

Explanation:

The digits of base 12 number system is={0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,A,B}

• Zero(0) is the lowest value in the base 12. So, the lowest digit in base 12 is: 0

• The letter ‘B’ is the highest value in base 12. So, the highest symbol for the digit in base 12 is: B (for decimal value 11)

The positional values of the rightmost four positions in each of the indicated base 12 number system:
