What are the required steps to convert base 10 decimal system
number 245 025 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;
- 245 025 ÷ 2 = 122 512 + 1;
- 122 512 ÷ 2 = 61 256 + 0;
- 61 256 ÷ 2 = 30 628 + 0;
- 30 628 ÷ 2 = 15 314 + 0;
- 15 314 ÷ 2 = 7 657 + 0;
- 7 657 ÷ 2 = 3 828 + 1;
- 3 828 ÷ 2 = 1 914 + 0;
- 1 914 ÷ 2 = 957 + 0;
- 957 ÷ 2 = 478 + 1;
- 478 ÷ 2 = 239 + 0;
- 239 ÷ 2 = 119 + 1;
- 119 ÷ 2 = 59 + 1;
- 59 ÷ 2 = 29 + 1;
- 29 ÷ 2 = 14 + 1;
- 14 ÷ 2 = 7 + 0;
- 7 ÷ 2 = 3 + 1;
- 3 ÷ 2 = 1 + 1;
- 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.
245 025(10) Base 10 decimal system number converted and written as a base 2 unsigned binary equivalent:
245 025 (base 10) = 11 1011 1101 0010 0001 (base 2)
Spaces were used to group digits: for binary, by 4, for decimal, by 3.
