What are the required steps to convert base 10 decimal system
number 764 825 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;
- 764 825 ÷ 2 = 382 412 + 1;
- 382 412 ÷ 2 = 191 206 + 0;
- 191 206 ÷ 2 = 95 603 + 0;
- 95 603 ÷ 2 = 47 801 + 1;
- 47 801 ÷ 2 = 23 900 + 1;
- 23 900 ÷ 2 = 11 950 + 0;
- 11 950 ÷ 2 = 5 975 + 0;
- 5 975 ÷ 2 = 2 987 + 1;
- 2 987 ÷ 2 = 1 493 + 1;
- 1 493 ÷ 2 = 746 + 1;
- 746 ÷ 2 = 373 + 0;
- 373 ÷ 2 = 186 + 1;
- 186 ÷ 2 = 93 + 0;
- 93 ÷ 2 = 46 + 1;
- 46 ÷ 2 = 23 + 0;
- 23 ÷ 2 = 11 + 1;
- 11 ÷ 2 = 5 + 1;
- 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.
764 825(10) Base 10 decimal system number converted and written as a base 2 unsigned binary equivalent:
764 825 (base 10) = 1011 1010 1011 1001 1001 (base 2)
Spaces were used to group digits: for binary, by 4, for decimal, by 3.
