My friend gave me this sequence of numbers:
3=11
6=12
11=13
14=14
361114=A
A=?
Which number can replace the question mark?

New Solution:
10. A (hexadecimal) = 10
Another possible Solution could be:
1. Since A is the first letter in the alphabet
If it's
11121314
then it's too easy.
I also have a solution
123468
because,
Think of the number to the left of the sequence as octal
Like
3(octal)= 11(binary)
6(octal)= 12(quanternary)
11(octal)= 13(Senary)
14(octal)= 14(octal)
So
361114(octal)= 123468(decimal)
An alternate solution is:
24024
because,
generally, when you have variable names next to each other (e.g. $xy$) that would mean that you are multiplying their values (e.g. $x\times y$).
Therefore,
you would multiply $11\times12\times13\times14=24024$
Based on the last but one line, A is
361114
361114=?
instead of adding a variable into the mix? $\endgroup$
