A student asked me if I knew what number (X) is missing in this sequence:

10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,20,22,24,33,100,x,10000

If anyone can help me answer her question, I'd surely appreciate it.

Thanks.

...surely you mean 24,31,100,x, ...?

The sequence is 16 in bases 16 through 2, thus the missing number is 121.

Of course, 33 is wrong. The sequence should be:

10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,20,22,24,31,100,x,10000

Yes, but "33" should be "31".
