What are the required steps to convert base 10 decimal system
number 4 012 367 276 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;
  • 4 012 367 276 ÷ 2 = 2 006 183 638 + 0;
  • 2 006 183 638 ÷ 2 = 1 003 091 819 + 0;
  • 1 003 091 819 ÷ 2 = 501 545 909 + 1;
  • 501 545 909 ÷ 2 = 250 772 954 + 1;
  • 250 772 954 ÷ 2 = 125 386 477 + 0;
  • 125 386 477 ÷ 2 = 62 693 238 + 1;
  • 62 693 238 ÷ 2 = 31 346 619 + 0;
  • 31 346 619 ÷ 2 = 15 673 309 + 1;
  • 15 673 309 ÷ 2 = 7 836 654 + 1;
  • 7 836 654 ÷ 2 = 3 918 327 + 0;
  • 3 918 327 ÷ 2 = 1 959 163 + 1;
  • 1 959 163 ÷ 2 = 979 581 + 1;
  • 979 581 ÷ 2 = 489 790 + 1;
  • 489 790 ÷ 2 = 244 895 + 0;
  • 244 895 ÷ 2 = 122 447 + 1;
  • 122 447 ÷ 2 = 61 223 + 1;
  • 61 223 ÷ 2 = 30 611 + 1;
  • 30 611 ÷ 2 = 15 305 + 1;
  • 15 305 ÷ 2 = 7 652 + 1;
  • 7 652 ÷ 2 = 3 826 + 0;
  • 3 826 ÷ 2 = 1 913 + 0;
  • 1 913 ÷ 2 = 956 + 1;
  • 956 ÷ 2 = 478 + 0;
  • 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.

4 012 367 276(10) Base 10 decimal system number converted and written as a base 2 unsigned binary equivalent:

4 012 367 276 (base 10) = 1110 1111 0010 0111 1101 1101 1010 1100 (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)
