ANSWERS

Q1. ASCII is used to convert characters (symbols, leters and numbers) into and from
binary. e.g. "A" = 01000001 [1]

Q2. Circle the MSB in this: 01000001 Note: it's the far left bit. NOT the '1' [1]
This is the most significant bit even if
the value of it is zero.

Q3. Circle the LSB in this: 01000001 1 The far right bit. [1]

Q4. Binary is the number system using only 0 and 1s.


What do you call a single 0 or 1? HINT: it is a binary digit
bit (you must spell "bit" correctly to get the mark) [1]

Q5. What is 110111 writen as an 8-bit number?

00110111 [1]

Q6. In denary (also called decimal and base 10), the p l a c e v a l u e of this digit
1000, because it is the fourth digit from the right, so it is worth
103 (10 mul�plied by itself three �mes).

2 419 5 1

In b i n a r y (also called base 2), the place value of this digit is 8, because
the fourth digit from the right, so it is worth
23 (2 mul�plied by itself three �mes).

1 01 1 1 0 [3]
(1 mark for each answer)

Q7.
Binary
Place 128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1
Value
(1 mark for ge�ng the en�re table correct) [1]
Q8. Convert this binary number into denary:
101

The place values of the binary number are:


4 2 1

So the number is:


4x1 + 2x0 + 1x1
=4+1
=5
(1 mark for the correct final answer) [1]

Q9. Convert this binary number into denary:


110010

The place values of the binary number are:


32 16 8 4 2 1

So the number is:


32x1 + 16x1 + 8x0 + 4x0 + 2x1 + 1x0
= 32 + 16 + 2
= 50
(1 mark for the correct final answer) [1]

Q10. Write 10101 as an 8-bit number.


Fill in the front of the number with zeros un�l you get 8 digits…
00010101 [1]

Q11. Convert this binary number into denary:


00110011

The place values of the binary number are:


128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1

So the number is:


128x0 + 64x0 + 32x1 + 16x1 + 8x0 + 4x0 + 2x1 + 1x1
= 32 + 16 + 2 + 1
= 51
(1 mark for the correct final answer) [1]
Q12. Convert this binary number into denary:
11111111

The place values of the binary number are:


128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1

So the number is:


128x1 + 64x1 + 32x1 + 16x1 + 8x1 + 4x1 + 2x1 + 1x1
= 128 + 64 + 32 + 16 + 8 + 4 + 2 + 1
= 255
(1 mark for the correct final answer) [1]

Now you need to go backwards … convert a denary number into binary.


Place
Value 128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1

What is the number 6 in binary?


Hopefully, you figured out it is 00000110
How did you know the answer was not something like 11111101?
…Because it would be much too big! You don't need so many 1s obviously.

This is how you convert from denary to binary (page72 of the textbook)

EXAMPLE: Convert the number 176 into binary:


Q13. Convert this denary number into a binary number.
20

The place values of the binary number are: 128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1

128 is bigger than 20


64 is bigger than 20
32 is bigger than 20
16 is small enough! 20 – 16 = 4
8 is bigger than 4
4 is small enough! 4 – 4 = 0
2 is bigger than 0
1 is bigger than 0

So, the only place values with a 1 are: 16 and 4. So the final answer is:
10100
(1 mark for the correct final answer. "00010100", i.e. the answer
writen as an 8-bit binary number is also OK) [1]

Q14.Imagine that ques�on 13 said:


"Convert this denary number into an 8- bit binary number."
What else do you need to do ?

You need to add leading zeros un�l the binary number is eight digits long.
i.e. it will become 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0
[1]

Q15. Convert this denary number into a binary number.


45

The place values of the binary number are: 128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1

128 is bigger than 45


64 is bigger than 45
32 is small enough! 45 – 32 = 13
16 is bigger than 13
8 is small enough! 13 – 8 = 5
4 is small enough! 5 – 4 = 1
2 is bigger than 1
1 is small enough! 1 – 1 = 0

So, the only place values with a 1 are: 32, 8, 4 and 1. So the final answer is:
00101101 DON'T FORGET THE LEADING ZEROS to MAKE IT 8-bit
(1 mark for the correct final answer including the leading zeros) [1]
Q16. Convert this denary number into a binary number.
108

The place values of the binary number are: 128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1

128 is bigger than 108


64 is small enough! 108 – 64 = 48
32 is small enough! 48 – 32 = 12
16 is bigger than 12
8 is small enough! 12 – 8 = 4
4 is small enough! 4 – 4 = 0
2 is bigger than 0
1 is bigger than 0

So, the only place values with a 1 are: 64, 32, 8 and 4. So the final answer is:
01101100 DON'T FORGET THE LEADING ZEROS to MAKE IT 8-bit
(1 mark for the correct final answer including the leading zeros) [1]

Q17. Convert this denary number into a binary number.


222

The place values of the binary number are: 128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1

128 is small enough! 222 – 128 = 94


64 is small enough! 94 – 64 = 30
32 is bigger than 30
16 is small enough! 30 – 16 = 14
8 is small enough! 14 – 8 = 6
4 is small enough! 6 – 4= 2
2 is small enough! 2 – 2 = 0
1 is bigger than 0

So, the only place values with a 1 are: 128, 64, 16, 8, 4 and 2. So the final answer is:
11011110
(1 mark for the correct final answer) [1]
