Ans. is 6.

(1362)to base x = (362) to base 10

so

1*x^3 + 3 * x^2 + 6 * x^1 + 2*x^0 = 362

substitute x = 6;

216 + 108 + 36 + 2 = 362.

we'll get 362.

Hence awnser is 6.

Since the number (1362)x has 6 the optioins 5 and 6 can be neglected. Because in system 5 and 6 we can have only their remaiinders and not more than that.To finid x:x^3 + 3x^2 + 6x + 2 362if x 7 then 343 + 147 + 42 + 2 cannot be equal to 362.Hence the answer is None Of These.
