What are the required steps to convert base 10 decimal system
number 3 455 645 503 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;
  • 3 455 645 503 ÷ 2 = 1 727 822 751 + 1;
  • 1 727 822 751 ÷ 2 = 863 911 375 + 1;
  • 863 911 375 ÷ 2 = 431 955 687 + 1;
  • 431 955 687 ÷ 2 = 215 977 843 + 1;
  • 215 977 843 ÷ 2 = 107 988 921 + 1;
  • 107 988 921 ÷ 2 = 53 994 460 + 1;
  • 53 994 460 ÷ 2 = 26 997 230 + 0;
  • 26 997 230 ÷ 2 = 13 498 615 + 0;
  • 13 498 615 ÷ 2 = 6 749 307 + 1;
  • 6 749 307 ÷ 2 = 3 374 653 + 1;
  • 3 374 653 ÷ 2 = 1 687 326 + 1;
  • 1 687 326 ÷ 2 = 843 663 + 0;
  • 843 663 ÷ 2 = 421 831 + 1;
  • 421 831 ÷ 2 = 210 915 + 1;
  • 210 915 ÷ 2 = 105 457 + 1;
  • 105 457 ÷ 2 = 52 728 + 1;
  • 52 728 ÷ 2 = 26 364 + 0;
  • 26 364 ÷ 2 = 13 182 + 0;
  • 13 182 ÷ 2 = 6 591 + 0;
  • 6 591 ÷ 2 = 3 295 + 1;
  • 3 295 ÷ 2 = 1 647 + 1;
  • 1 647 ÷ 2 = 823 + 1;
  • 823 ÷ 2 = 411 + 1;
  • 411 ÷ 2 = 205 + 1;
  • 205 ÷ 2 = 102 + 1;
  • 102 ÷ 2 = 51 + 0;
  • 51 ÷ 2 = 25 + 1;
  • 25 ÷ 2 = 12 + 1;
  • 12 ÷ 2 = 6 + 0;
  • 6 ÷ 2 = 3 + 0;
  • 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.

3 455 645 503(10) Base 10 decimal system number converted and written as a base 2 unsigned binary equivalent:

3 455 645 503 (base 10) = 1100 1101 1111 1000 1111 0111 0011 1111 (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)
