What are the required steps to convert base 10 decimal system
number 353 101 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;
- 353 101 ÷ 2 = 176 550 + 1;
- 176 550 ÷ 2 = 88 275 + 0;
- 88 275 ÷ 2 = 44 137 + 1;
- 44 137 ÷ 2 = 22 068 + 1;
- 22 068 ÷ 2 = 11 034 + 0;
- 11 034 ÷ 2 = 5 517 + 0;
- 5 517 ÷ 2 = 2 758 + 1;
- 2 758 ÷ 2 = 1 379 + 0;
- 1 379 ÷ 2 = 689 + 1;
- 689 ÷ 2 = 344 + 1;
- 344 ÷ 2 = 172 + 0;
- 172 ÷ 2 = 86 + 0;
- 86 ÷ 2 = 43 + 0;
- 43 ÷ 2 = 21 + 1;
- 21 ÷ 2 = 10 + 1;
- 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.
353 101(10) Base 10 decimal system number converted and written as a base 2 unsigned binary equivalent:
353 101 (base 10) = 101 0110 0011 0100 1101 (base 2)
Spaces were used to group digits: for binary, by 4, for decimal, by 3.
