Directions
Use your Flippy Do to answer the questions.

All 4-Bit Numbers: Fill in the binary equivalents for the decimal numbers below. We’ve started the first three for you.

Binary: 4-bit number Decimal Binary: 4-bit number Decimal

0000 0
0001 1
0010 2

What do you notice when you compare the odd numbers with the even numbers? What might explain this?

Binary Numbers with exactly one 1: Complete the chart with all 8-bit binary numbers that have exactly one 1.
We’ve done the first two for you.

Binary: 8-bit number Decimal Binary: 8-bit number Decimal


(with exactly one 1) (with exactly one 1)

0000 0001 1
0000 0010 2
0000 0100

What do you notice about the decimal equivalents above?

Unit 1 Lesson 4
Conversion Practice: Find the equivalent binary or decimal numbers below.

Binary Decimal Binary Decimal

100 5
101 17
1101 63
0001 1111 64
0010 0000 127
1010 1010 256
1111 1111 513
.

When you add a zero to the right of a decimal number, it multiplies its value by 10 (For example, “15” becomes “150”).
What similar result happens to the value of a binary number when you add a zero on the right? (For example, “11”
would become “110”).

Do the binary numbers “0011” and “000011” have the same value or different values? Explain.

Would two bits be enough to assign a unique binary number to each vowel in the English language? Explain.

How many bits would you need if you wanted to count up to the decimal number 1000?
