   These tables are functionally complete for multiplication operations using Kaktovik numerals, but for factors with both bases and sub-bases it is necessary to first disassociate them: 6 * 3 = 18 * = (* ) + (* ) = In the above example the factor (6) is not found in the table, but its components, (1) and (5), are.
