1/3 is in: Base 10 = 0.333333333... Base 12 = 0.4 Base 60 = 0.2 However, Base 12 is more able to be comprehended by humans. With Base 60, you'd have to memorize 60 individual symbols while with Base 12 you only have to memorize 12 individual symbols. It is the same issue that existed with cuniform writing (hundreds of symbols to memorize). Writing about ancient writing using a modern writing system win. |

In base 60, of course, it's a simple 0.b. Base 60 notation is a simple extension of hexadecimal - just ignoring the letter I and so using 0..9a..zA..Z to give the required 60 symbols! Winning with a greater number of divisors. |
