title: Base 8 to hexadecimal conversion
body: <p>I would just like to confirm the following answer.</p>
  
  <p>703710<sub>8</sub>.</p>
  
  <p>8 does not form part of the number. Converting this to hexadecimal I get the answer ABCDE. Is this correct? If so what is the purpose of the subscript / base 8 which is written slightly below the number 703710. </p>
