What are the required steps to convert base 10 decimal system
number 11 100 110 277 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;
  • 11 100 110 277 ÷ 2 = 5 550 055 138 + 1;
  • 5 550 055 138 ÷ 2 = 2 775 027 569 + 0;
  • 2 775 027 569 ÷ 2 = 1 387 513 784 + 1;
  • 1 387 513 784 ÷ 2 = 693 756 892 + 0;
  • 693 756 892 ÷ 2 = 346 878 446 + 0;
  • 346 878 446 ÷ 2 = 173 439 223 + 0;
  • 173 439 223 ÷ 2 = 86 719 611 + 1;
  • 86 719 611 ÷ 2 = 43 359 805 + 1;
  • 43 359 805 ÷ 2 = 21 679 902 + 1;
  • 21 679 902 ÷ 2 = 10 839 951 + 0;
  • 10 839 951 ÷ 2 = 5 419 975 + 1;
  • 5 419 975 ÷ 2 = 2 709 987 + 1;
  • 2 709 987 ÷ 2 = 1 354 993 + 1;
  • 1 354 993 ÷ 2 = 677 496 + 1;
  • 677 496 ÷ 2 = 338 748 + 0;
  • 338 748 ÷ 2 = 169 374 + 0;
  • 169 374 ÷ 2 = 84 687 + 0;
  • 84 687 ÷ 2 = 42 343 + 1;
  • 42 343 ÷ 2 = 21 171 + 1;
  • 21 171 ÷ 2 = 10 585 + 1;
  • 10 585 ÷ 2 = 5 292 + 1;
  • 5 292 ÷ 2 = 2 646 + 0;
  • 2 646 ÷ 2 = 1 323 + 0;
  • 1 323 ÷ 2 = 661 + 1;
  • 661 ÷ 2 = 330 + 1;
  • 330 ÷ 2 = 165 + 0;
  • 165 ÷ 2 = 82 + 1;
  • 82 ÷ 2 = 41 + 0;
  • 41 ÷ 2 = 20 + 1;
  • 20 ÷ 2 = 10 + 0;
  • 10 ÷ 2 = 5 + 0;
  • 5 ÷ 2 = 2 + 1;
  • 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.

11 100 110 277(10) Base 10 decimal system number converted and written as a base 2 unsigned binary equivalent:

11 100 110 277 (base 10) = 10 1001 0101 1001 1110 0011 1101 1100 0101 (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)
