What are the required steps to convert base 10 decimal system
number 5 222 367 538 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;
  • 5 222 367 538 ÷ 2 = 2 611 183 769 + 0;
  • 2 611 183 769 ÷ 2 = 1 305 591 884 + 1;
  • 1 305 591 884 ÷ 2 = 652 795 942 + 0;
  • 652 795 942 ÷ 2 = 326 397 971 + 0;
  • 326 397 971 ÷ 2 = 163 198 985 + 1;
  • 163 198 985 ÷ 2 = 81 599 492 + 1;
  • 81 599 492 ÷ 2 = 40 799 746 + 0;
  • 40 799 746 ÷ 2 = 20 399 873 + 0;
  • 20 399 873 ÷ 2 = 10 199 936 + 1;
  • 10 199 936 ÷ 2 = 5 099 968 + 0;
  • 5 099 968 ÷ 2 = 2 549 984 + 0;
  • 2 549 984 ÷ 2 = 1 274 992 + 0;
  • 1 274 992 ÷ 2 = 637 496 + 0;
  • 637 496 ÷ 2 = 318 748 + 0;
  • 318 748 ÷ 2 = 159 374 + 0;
  • 159 374 ÷ 2 = 79 687 + 0;
  • 79 687 ÷ 2 = 39 843 + 1;
  • 39 843 ÷ 2 = 19 921 + 1;
  • 19 921 ÷ 2 = 9 960 + 1;
  • 9 960 ÷ 2 = 4 980 + 0;
  • 4 980 ÷ 2 = 2 490 + 0;
  • 2 490 ÷ 2 = 1 245 + 0;
  • 1 245 ÷ 2 = 622 + 1;
  • 622 ÷ 2 = 311 + 0;
  • 311 ÷ 2 = 155 + 1;
  • 155 ÷ 2 = 77 + 1;
  • 77 ÷ 2 = 38 + 1;
  • 38 ÷ 2 = 19 + 0;
  • 19 ÷ 2 = 9 + 1;
  • 9 ÷ 2 = 4 + 1;
  • 4 ÷ 2 = 2 + 0;
  • 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.

5 222 367 538(10) Base 10 decimal system number converted and written as a base 2 unsigned binary equivalent:

5 222 367 538 (base 10) = 1 0011 0111 0100 0111 0000 0001 0011 0010 (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)
