Please help me with this question

Prove formula (2.1) for the number of bits in the binary representation of a positive integer. What would be the analogous formula for the number of decimal digits? Explain why, within the accepted analysis framework, it does not matter whether we use binary or decimal digits in measuring n' s size.
