Question: Create a menu for a restaurant with at least 5 items. Suppose this restaurant is being opened in a country where they use base 2

Create a menu for a restaurant with at least 5 items. Suppose this restaurant is being opened in a country where they use base 2 instead of base 10. Write the price of your items in base 10, and then again in base 2. (Make sure your items are reasonable prices!)

If someone walked in and bought three items from your menu for lunch, add up those three items in base 2.

Now suppose your restaurant is expanding to a different country that works in base 3. Translate your menu into base 3 below.

Choose the same three items you did in #2, but now add them up in base 3.

Suppose the person ordering the items in #4 changes their mind before the food comes out, and send one of the items back. Take the total from #4, and subtract one of the items in base 3.

What would 101 represent in base 4? How do you know?
