Conversion of Decimals Into Binary Numbers

Firstly let's learn to interpret a decimal number using its base.

The standard numeral system is called decimal (base 10) and uses ten symbols: 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9.
Binary number system uses only two symbols '0 and 1' Therefore a binary number has a base 2.

There's an example provided above. Have a look.

Converting a decimal number is just dividing the given number repeatedly and noting the remainder beside.

Look at the example.

This method goes with multiplying each digit in the binary number with 2 to the power of its position in the number and adding all the products together. For a clear understanding look at the picture above.
