What are the required steps to convert base 10 decimal system
number 10 101 100 980 to base 2 unsigned binary equivalent?

  • A number written in base ten, or a decimal system number, is a number written using the digits 0 through 9. A number written in base two, or a binary system number, is a number written using only the digits 0 and 1.

1. Divide the number repeatedly by 2:

Keep track of each remainder.

Stop when you get a quotient that is equal to zero.


  • division = quotient + remainder;
  • 10 101 100 980 ÷ 2 = 5 050 550 490 + 0;
  • 5 050 550 490 ÷ 2 = 2 525 275 245 + 0;
  • 2 525 275 245 ÷ 2 = 1 262 637 622 + 1;
  • 1 262 637 622 ÷ 2 = 631 318 811 + 0;
  • 631 318 811 ÷ 2 = 315 659 405 + 1;
  • 315 659 405 ÷ 2 = 157 829 702 + 1;
  • 157 829 702 ÷ 2 = 78 914 851 + 0;
  • 78 914 851 ÷ 2 = 39 457 425 + 1;
  • 39 457 425 ÷ 2 = 19 728 712 + 1;
  • 19 728 712 ÷ 2 = 9 864 356 + 0;
  • 9 864 356 ÷ 2 = 4 932 178 + 0;
  • 4 932 178 ÷ 2 = 2 466 089 + 0;
  • 2 466 089 ÷ 2 = 1 233 044 + 1;
  • 1 233 044 ÷ 2 = 616 522 + 0;
  • 616 522 ÷ 2 = 308 261 + 0;
  • 308 261 ÷ 2 = 154 130 + 1;
  • 154 130 ÷ 2 = 77 065 + 0;
  • 77 065 ÷ 2 = 38 532 + 1;
  • 38 532 ÷ 2 = 19 266 + 0;
  • 19 266 ÷ 2 = 9 633 + 0;
  • 9 633 ÷ 2 = 4 816 + 1;
  • 4 816 ÷ 2 = 2 408 + 0;
  • 2 408 ÷ 2 = 1 204 + 0;
  • 1 204 ÷ 2 = 602 + 0;
  • 602 ÷ 2 = 301 + 0;
  • 301 ÷ 2 = 150 + 1;
  • 150 ÷ 2 = 75 + 0;
  • 75 ÷ 2 = 37 + 1;
  • 37 ÷ 2 = 18 + 1;
  • 18 ÷ 2 = 9 + 0;
  • 9 ÷ 2 = 4 + 1;
  • 4 ÷ 2 = 2 + 0;
  • 2 ÷ 2 = 1 + 0;
  • 1 ÷ 2 = 0 + 1;

2. Construct the base 2 representation of the positive number:

Take all the remainders starting from the bottom of the list constructed above.

10 101 100 980(10) Base 10 decimal system number converted and written as a base 2 unsigned binary equivalent:

10 101 100 980 (base 10) = 10 0101 1010 0001 0010 1001 0001 1011 0100 (base 2)

Spaces were used to group digits: for binary, by 4, for decimal, by 3.

How to convert unsigned integer numbers (positive) from decimal system (base 10) to binary = simply convert from base 10 to base 2

Follow the steps below to convert a base ten unsigned integer number to base two:

  • 1. Divide repeatedly by 2 the positive integer number that has to be converted to binary, keeping track of each remainder, until we get a QUOTIENT that is equal to ZERO.
  • 2. Construct the base 2 representation of the positive integer number, by taking all the remainders starting from the bottom of the list constructed above. Thus, the last remainder of the divisions becomes the first symbol (the leftmost) of the base two number, while the first remainder becomes the last symbol (the rightmost).

Example: convert the positive integer number 55 from decimal system (base ten) to binary code (base two):

  • 1. Divide repeatedly 55 by 2, keeping track of each remainder, until we get a quotient that is equal to zero:
    • division = quotient + remainder;
    • 55 ÷ 2 = 27 + 1;
    • 27 ÷ 2 = 13 + 1;
    • 13 ÷ 2 = 6 + 1;
    • 6 ÷ 2 = 3 + 0;
    • 3 ÷ 2 = 1 + 1;
    • 1 ÷ 2 = 0 + 1;
  • 2. Construct the base 2 representation of the positive integer number, by taking all the remainders starting from the bottom of the list constructed above:
  • 55(10) = 11 0111(2)
  • Number 5510, positive integer (no sign), converted from decimal system (base 10) to unsigned binary (base 2) = 11 0111(2)
