Does somone ever tried to research rounding economy related to different number bases?
As some example, at base 10, if you want to round to nearest number with last X digits being 0, you will need to add or remove at average a value of (10^X)/4, where X is the amount of digits you want to be 0.
Does someone ever tried to find what is the number base, where you would need at average add/remove the minimum amount of numbers to round the value you want? 191.250.232.243 ( talk) 17:55, 5 September 2021 (UTC)
