Counting
In mathematical problems, there is a difference between the way you count numbers and values. In simple base 10 math, the methods appear to be the same; However, if you intend to use an alternative base for your mathematical problems, you can immediately see the difference.
A numerical representation for a value, is divided into exponents according to it's base. For example, in base 10 math, the digits representing values are read from right to left as ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, etc. - which are all multiples of 10.
In base two math, they read from right to left as ones, twos, fours, eights. Similarly, base three math reads ones, threes, nines, twenty-sevens, etc.
