How to convert the base ten number 721 740 573 498 481 575 to base two:
- 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.
To convert a base ten unsigned number (written in decimal system) to base two (written in binary), follow the steps below.
- Divide the number repeatedly by 2: keep track of each remainder.
- Stop when you get a quotient that is equal to zero.
- Construct the base 2 representation of the positive number: take all the remainders starting from the bottom of the list constructed above.
- Below you can see the conversion process to base two and the related calculations.
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;
